=) Hi there - I apologize if this is simple and basic -

What I am trying to do using CS3 Flash w/ AS 2.0 is create a visible counter that will start at 0 and count up to 30.3.

I have a graph I have successfully animated to grow and just need the digits to visibly count under this graph.

I have gotten a dynamic text field but am at a loss with the AS.

myValue = number;  
myValue = myValue +1;  
myValue ++;

myValue is the variable for the dynamic text

Any help is appreciated - Thank you!
