… because I can’t get it to work!

```auto
var thumbBalcony:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("thumbBalcony",this.getNextHighestDepth()+3);
thumbBalcony.loadMovie("flash-balcony-small.png");

thumbBalcony.onRollOver = function():Void {
    thumbNoteOut("thumbBalconyText");
}

```

Is this supposed to be like this? Orrr am I missing something?
