write a variable from a movieclip to the mainmovie...

does anybody know how to write a textvariable to another level? Like from a movieclip to the mainmovie.
Thanks already

If you want to write to a variable 'mainVar' on the main movie from a MC, it would look like this:

_root.mainVar = "This is Cool Text";

Or else to another level:

_level1.mainVar = "This is again Cool Text";
