Thanks for the pointers. I replaced myMap.scrollRect.Top with myMap.X and myMap.scrollRect.X, both had no effect. What should be my base container object? Right now I just have an image as the base container, is there a better choice. In our Flash 8 code, we have 3 different movie clips.
On the children, where is the Sprite collection? Which container class has this as its display list. after rereading your sentence, are you saying that the base container should be a sprite and it has a display list?
