I am trying to learn flash and was tryingn to check the color of a movieclip with  
actionscript. Here is the code i used

myColorObject = new color(“myMovieClip\_mc”);  
trace((myColorObject.getRGB()).toString());

I get a error message in the output window. Can someone please let me know what I am doing wrong?
