So I have a combobox…it’s called tableColorBox, with two labels and data- transparent and color. The initially selected label is transparent, but when the user changes to color, I have an attachMovie that calls on a color picker. That part works like a charm. But for some reason, I can’t get rid of the color picker when I change back to transparent…any ideas?

```auto
tableColorBox.changeHandler = function() {
	if (tableColorBox.selectedItem.data == transparent) {
		tablecolor = tableColorBox.selectedItem.data;
		pickerContainer1.removeMovieClip();
		trace(tablecolor);
	}
	else {
	    pickerContainer1.attachMovie("HoloPicker", "picker2", pickerContainer1.getNextHighestDepth(), {paletteSize:"Medium", palettePosition:"Left", initialHex:bgcolor});
		tablecolor = pickerContainer1.picker2.hex.split("0x").join("");
		trace(tablecolor);
		pickerContainer1.picker2.onColorChange = function() {
			tablecolor = pickerContainer1.picker2.hex.split("0x").join("");
			trace(tablecolor);
		};
	}
};

```
