isn't getting a child by name very slow?

If each of the columns has .name='column1' etc:
e.target.getChildByName("column10").gotoAndStop(5);
should do it.
But personally I'd at least do some type-checking on all that, and
would probably create a method inside an AllColumns class to handle
changeChar(). (Obviously I don't know what you're doing, though...)

Wow, AS3 is different, even after reading Moock's book. I'm sure this
is an easy question:
How do you reference sprites within a sprite in an event listener?
I have a child "allcolumns" within a sprite. Within "allcolumns" are 50
columns (sprites), each named column1, column2, etc.
Allcolumns has an event listener:
private function changeChar(e:Event):void {
e.target["column10"].gotoAndStop(5);
}
Result: ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property column10 not found on
flash.display.Sprite and there is no default value.
How to drill into what's in the e.target?
Thanks,
