Ahhh, very interesting! That's a great idea! Thanks for tip.

I wonder if I will have to use try/catch to avoid any typecasting errors?

Testing now...

Works perfectly!

var mc:MovieClip = o[i] as MovieClip;
if (mc) { trace("movieclip"); } else { trace("other"); }

Pretty cool! Thaks for tip. :)

Have a great day! Much appreciated.

Cheers,
Micky
