All i want to do is duplicate a drag and drop a mc. Could someone please help to get this working. At the moment, it drags the first clip, then the one underneath (left behind) dissapears after a few seconds. I would like to have say 10 copies of the mc. Here is my code, It is attached to the mc.

on (press) {  
this.duplicateMovieClip(“mca”, 1);  
\_root.mca.startDrag();  
}  
on (release) {  
stopDrag();

}
