Access MC property inside the MC itself?

Hi Kirupas!

I have a small and properly very simple problem.

I create a new Ball movieclip and sets the Uid property:

var ball_mc:Ball = new Ball();
ball_mc.uID = “1232435”;
addChild(ball_mc);

From outside the movieclip i can access the property value by trace(ball_mc.uID);, but what if i what to reach the value inside the movieclip itself? trace(uID); or trace(ball_mc.uID); dosent seem to work.

Hope someone can give me a hint - and yes, i’m a n00b…:whistle:
