[AS2] Help calling variables. (basic!)

Hi all,

I have another question for the cleverestest Flash guru’s i’ve ever had the honor of asking for help from. :nat:

I have a basic script

 
on (release) {
   bookmark = "_root.bookmark_aboutus";
   bookmark.play();
 
}

But when I try to call the variable like that it doesn’t work. I’m fairly new to AS so i’m still not familiar with the syntax.

Any suggestions/ideas? Much appriciated.
