ok, bar isn't the name of the sprite, it's a variable with name bar which
contains a reference to your sprite... if you want to use names then do
something like bar.name = String("bar_" + i); but personally i'd use an
array like so...
var bars:Array = [];
function createBars():void
{
for (var i:int=0; i<totalbars; i++)
{
var bar:Sprite = new Sprite();
...............
addChild(bar);
bars.push(bar);
{
}
then you can get at the bars later to do stuff with them or remove them...
