[AS2]RPG dialogue help

I want to make a dialogue box that presents text like an RPG game but I can't figure out how to make it work. Any help?

this is the best i could get and it won't even work
(my text box's variable is "speach" without the quotes)

Actionscript Code:

speach.length = 0
speach= "This is the first dialogue".
onEnterFrame = function(){
speach.length++;
}

I don't understand why that won't work. Any help?

Try searching the Games forum for stuff like "rpg", "dialogue", "speech", "text box", etc. I've found some good code bits for doing typing stuff like that. Lots of people have tried to make RPGs so you should be able to find something.

Good luck!
