my attached clips have text boxes in them (named: r).

how can i put data in these text boxes?  
i am new at flash,so i guess there is some problem with my addressing nethod…the code was written with barn`s help:te:

for (i=0; i\<\_root.g; i++) {  
target = \_root[“mc\_holder”+i];  
target.attachMovie(“card”, “card”+i, i);  
tar2 = target.card+i;  
[COLOR=“DeepSkyBlue”]trace(tar2);[/COLOR]  
[COLOR=“Red”]tar2.r.text = “something”;[/COLOR]  
}
