Hello all,

I’m (coding) at timeline:

```auto
_level0.worldmap.map_mc

```

and would like to change the htmlText in:

```auto
_level0.newsContainer.newsHolder.article.quote

```

How can I do this?

(I’m getting these references from Debug\> List Objects in the flashplayer preview)

Do I have to cast? or may I do it the proper OO way?
