_level0. "variable name" as an argument

[chozometroid]

How do you type out a variable name in an argument?

Like...

instead of:
function("_level0.MCname", argument2); MCname is the name of a movie clip

you want:
function("_level0."+MC2Edit, argument2); where MC2Edit is a variable name

I can't get it to work with the above syntax.

_root[MC2Edit]

Thanks a bunch. That didn't work, but you got me to try
_root[_root.MC2Edit] Which worked! (can't expect you to know exactly how I have things set up if I don't specify)

I didn't know about the bracket thing. I'm not sure if it's in the Flash MX guide/help manual, but I haven't read it all, so maybe it is.


Thanks again.
