on a related note. If I have a sprite in my Library (exported with a class
name), and in that sprite some movieclips, in order to call the sprite
into
my document class, in order to access things within that sprite, I have to
do this:
private var bSprite;
...
bSprite = new IDESprite();
bSprite.some_mc...
and NOT
private var bSprite:Sprite
because then when I try to access "some_mc" I get an error.
So in this case is it best to simply not type bSprite, or type it with a
wildcard?

What I meant was, not "even if", but that casting to a wildcard will
alieviate the compiler complaints since you're casting to SOMETHING,
even if it is a wildcard.
