Hi everybody,

I have got a problem to which I cannot find the answer. If anybody could help me out, or point me in the right direction, that would be great.

What I want is the following. Based on an XML file and one empty movie clip, I create about 80 different items (menu items). By drag and dropping these menu items you can create a scene with objects.

These objects are copies of the menu items. But I want to use the attachMovie command to have control over the path of the objects. But by creating the menu items dynamically, I cannot say in the library, export for actionscript.

So my question is, how can I use the attachMovie command on items that are dynamically created.

Please help me out!
