I like the idea... but it does involve a fair bit of reworking. The project is nearly done and the print functionality has been sprung on me. If I can't find any other way I'll give it a shot and let you know how it goes. Thanks for the help Steve Cheers, Chris

Ok
So the data loads into this MC, then you want to duplicate the MC into a
container for printing.
If you attach the MC instead, you can then use an onLoad method in the MC
being attached to actually go grab the data from the MC you would have duplicated
that not possible?

because this is for a print friendly button and the first time the
data loads it is loading from xml and takes a fair while.... I don't want to have to
populate the data again just to print.. it'll take way too long.

Why does that matter?
Just attach it then populate it after its attached.

thanks... can't use attachmovie, the mc is dynamically
populated with data... but it's good to know that I shouldn't spend any more time on
it ;-)
Cheers,
Chris

You cant duplicate a mc into another mc. You
will need to use attachMovie

Subject: duplicateMovieClip
hi guys,
This might be a very simple question but at
the moment it's giving me headaches.
I want to do a duplicateMovieClip on a movie
but the duplicated movie should be put inside another movie. It works no problem when
I'm doing it in the same movie as the original, but when I tell it to create the
movieClip in another movie, it has a spaz and doesn't appear.
here's a snippet
on (release) {
duplicateMovieClip("_root.tester",
"_root.myPrintMC.tester", 1);
setProperty ("myPrintMC.tester", _x,
"200");
}
Any help much appreciated
Cheers,
Chris
