hi …

I have written some action script (well most of the script) on main time line without using any CLASS - (bad practice) … there are many variables that i have created there and the stage objects … I am using those objects on main time line as …

```auto

this.mVideo.someProperty ... 

```

now i have written a class say … “Test.as” which i have placed in the same directory. now while being in that class method, how can i access variables define on the timeline actionscript + on the stage …

how can i access that “mVideo” object from that class ??
