Can’t figure this out for the life of me. Its probably something simple, but I can’t find any solutions online. Can anyone help a brother out here? All I’m trying to do is assign text to a dynamic text box that is inside a movieclip (loaded from the library using addChild()

Heres my code (obviously wrong) :

for(var i:uint=0; i\<myXML._.length(); i++) {  
var myMC:MovieClip = new content\_mc();  
myMC.y = i_170;  
myMC.title\_txt.text = “Blah”;  
this.content.addChild(myMC);  
}
