I want to fade in a mc with Tweener. The attachMovie works fine, but tweener does not. Any ideas? Am I totally lost here?

```auto
my_btn.onRelease = function (){
    empty_container.attachMovie("myfadein_mc", "myfadein_mc", 1);
    Tweener.addTween(myfadein_mc,{_alpha:100, time:2, delay:0, transition:"linear"});
    }

```

nor does this work:

```auto
my_btn.onRelease = function (){
    var myfadein_mc:MovieClip = empty_container.attachMovie("myfadein_mc", "myfadein_mc", 1);
    Tweener.addTween(myfadein_mc,{_alpha:100, time:2, delay:0, transition:"linear"});
    }

```

no matter what path I give to myfadein\_mc, tweener does not work.  
myfadein\_mc is properly lingaged.  
Caurina folder etc. is in place, as other tweeners work fine.
