Hi everybody, I’m new in AS3, can anyone help? why the script down there not working?

var myX:Number = -200  
var myMc\_mc:MovieClip;  
for(var i:Number=0 ; i\<5 ; i++){  
myMc\_mc = new mc;  
myX +=200  
myMc\_mc.x= myX  
myMc\_mc.name= “mc”+i;  
addChild(myMc\_mc)

```
myMc_mc.name.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,
        function():void{
        trace(myMc_mc.name)
        trace("test")
        }
    )

```

}

Thanks.:beam:
