I have a rather silly question but as3’s document class always gets me confused.

I have a public method on my document class. I want to call this method from another class that is instantiated from within an object in the library of the flash file (the same one on whose document class I want to call a method).

I have tried everything and nothing seems to work. How do I do this?
