Hi Jon,

Appreciate the response, but I have figured it out. The flas I was using had
'Automatically declare stage instances' checked, while the fla I was needing
to work in did not have it checked. This was a real stumper, and it didn't
help that the checkbox was hidden under Publish Settings
->Flash->Actionscript 3.0 Settings.


Thanks,
Chris Hill
