But it does too exist! Not fair! :(

That made sense, but it still threw the same error. So I tried this:
trace(e.currentTarget.numChildren);
and that, too, threw the same error, collaborating with your evaluation.
However, I have these lines in the code that calls the function wherein the
trace is defined:
mySprite.addChild(aChild);
addChild(mySprite);
so clearly, mySprite, which is the currentTarget:
mySprite.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, onMouseOverHandler);
does indeed have a child. (This is beginning to remind me of certain
deadbeat fathers who divorce their wives and don't pay alimony lol.) What
do?
Susan
