You need to declare a variable in your class and assign the movieclip to it - outside a function, ie
var myMC:MovieClip; then you could change addChild(loadEvent.currentTarget.content); to myMC = loadEvent.currentTarget.content; addChild(myMC); and manipulate it myMC.x += 10; remove it removeChild(myMC); _ _ _ Erik Mattheis Senior Web Developer Minneapolis T 952 346 6610 C 612 377 2272 Weber Shandwick Advocacy starts here.
