Dispatchevent to Child

programming flash
1

I’ve got 2 files. Main.swf loads text.swf and then dispatches an event to text.swf to let it know what text to load in it’s textfield. After reading ton’s of tutorials and googling for hours I still can’t figure it out.

Main.swf:

 
var theText:String = "text1";
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.load(new URLRequest("text.swf")); 
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, addme);
 
function addme(e:Event)
{
 addChild(loader);
 dispatchEvent(new Event("Changer", true)); 
}

text.swf

 
addEventListener("Changer", CreateTextfield);
function CreateTextfield(event:Event)
{
 trace(event.target.theText)
}

I don’t get any errors, except if I mispell “Changer” or leave the quotes out. That makes me think the code is fine. If I put the dispatchevent in text.swf It works. It just wont work when I put it in main.swf

I don’t get it. Every tutorial I found starts talking about custom event classes, importing them and public this, private that. So I tried that aproach, by importing a custom event class in both files, put them all in 1 folder. I tried different custom event classes I found on the web. No success.

Do I approach this wrongly?
