Thanks Ian! I think delete _global.com.mycompany.mypackage.MyClass;
is close to what I need bascially I have some movieclips manually place on the stage with class linkages defnied in the library. the MC's when instantiated perform the following initialize action: get their inital _y postitions, and then, depending on this value, move themselves to an inital starting position Howver, I only want this t happen ONCE the problem is these movieclips are one after the other on the timeline so the associated class is constantly instantiated. Does this make sense? I thought the easiest solution would be to somehwo 'rmove' the class linkage after the initialize action...
