    The place where the user inputs their name wants to be an editable text field. Make it in a seperate mc, draw a text field, make the width a preset amount(square box in the bottom corner), set the typeface you want, right click on the text field and set the properties you want - make it editable, set the max length etc, include the font outlines if you want to use a certain font, AND GIVE THE VARIABLE A NAME (something like "username"). When you want to use it elswhere in your movie, you simply recall the variable name: make a new text field, give it a new variable name (something like "name"), and go:
    set variable "name" = /movieclipinstancename:username
    Is that understandable?
