Can anyone see something wrong with this code??? The “scroll\_right” image shows up, but **in Debug** ,\* \_root.win\_Main.scroll\_right.bar \*does not exist after this code is called. However, \*\_root.win\_Main.scroll\_right \*\*\*DOES \*\*exist. Any ideas?

```auto
var win:Object = _root.win_Main;

win.createEmptyMovieClip( "scroll_right", win.getNextHighestDepth() );
loadMovie( "scroll_BG_Vertical.png", win.scroll_right );

win.scroll_right.createEmptyMovieClip( "bar", win.scroll_right.getNextHighestDepth() );
loadMovie( "scroll_Bar.png", win.scroll_right.bar );

```
