Hi All,

I’m sure this is a quick and easy question but I’ve been at it for a while and can’t seem to get what the problem is.

Inside my movieclip called “movies”, I created a dynamic movieclip

```auto

var my_movie:MovieClip = new MovieClip;
addChild(my_movie)

```

Which is working fine. But when I back out of my “movies” movie clip, I can’t access “my\_movie”. It seems logical to type movie.my\_movie to access it, but I’m receiving a null error. I’m surprised I’ve never come across this one before. Can someone help me out with this please???
