Hi Susan,
The error means that 'e.currentTarget.getChildByName(aChild).text' dies not exist. I think the syntax should read e.currentTarget.getChildByName ("aChild").text (quotes around aChild as the name of an object is a string)

If "aChild" is a public property of your currentTarget, your code would
work.

If not you can use getChildByName()/getChildAt()


It isn't, so I tried this code:

trace(e.currentTarget.getChildByName(aChild).text);

and while it didn't error, it didn't trace anything when I moused over :(


Oops. My bad. Moused over the wrong widget. It threw this error:

1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object.

Now, aChild is generated anew with every iteration; however, it's obviously
bound to the currentTarget. Please advise.
