I have the following display structure

BASE (library instance of a movieClip)  
[COLOR=White]**[/COLOR]|  
[COLOR=White]**[/COLOR]Option[1] (array instance of MovieClip class)  
[COLOR=White]_**[/COLOR]|  
[COLOR=White]**_[/COLOR]Btn (library instance of a movieClip)  
[COLOR=White]**[/COLOR]Option[2]  
[COLOR=White] **_** [/COLOR]|  
[COLOR=White]**_\_\_\_\_[/COLOR]Btn

How do I set the startDrag on, say, Option[1] from eventlisteners on _its_ Btn?  
Or, put another way…  
How is Option[x] targetted from its Btn object?

any ideas? thanks lots!
