Dynamic movie naming

[acreate]

Hi all,
i'm trying to create a number of duplicate movie clips using a for loop, managed to create them using dup clip and "opp"+n for the name, problem is trying to then access the new clips properties "opp"+n.value dosn't work at all...how can i access clips using a dynamic name?

setproperty works o.k. with dynamic names but i want to set variables i have placed in the clip myself

thx

Let's assume you duplicated the clip on _root.
You can access the new instances like this:
_root["opp"+n]._visible (or any other property)

_root["opp" + n].MyVariable = 50;

note no . before [
you will need root or parent or something to start the path before the [] you cant just start with [] flash gets confused.
