Hi There,

I want to disable 6 movie clips after an onRelease function …  
Rather than writing:

myMC.onRelease = function (){

thisMC.\_alpha =50;

myOther1\_mc.enabled = false;  
myOther2\_mc.enabled = false;  
myOther3\_mc.enabled = false;  
myOther4\_mc.enabled = false;  
myOther5\_mc.enabled = false;

}

How could I sum up all those myOther\*\_mc’s as one term, so that I can call ‘group\_mc.enabled = false;’ instead, and have it in one nice line. … ?

help would be ace!  
thanks
