hi can anyone have help with this one…

on (press) {  
var xxx = \_root.txt\_holder.text;  
\_root.two.text = xxx;  
// \_root.xxx.\_visible = false;  
}

i need an output like this:  
\_root.red\_box.\_visible = false;

the problem is i cannot set \_root.xxx.\_visible = false;

where xxx is the instance name of the selected clip…i think concatenate might do the trick…but i forgot to do this…help please…

Thanks…
