I’m not too sure how to add depth to this code. I want to place the duplicate MC’s in the background of the movie. Anyone able to help with this?

Here is the code:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {  
duplicateMovieClip ("/box", “bn” add n, n);  
\_root[“bn”+n].\_alpha = (2\*(n));  
\_root[“bn”+n].\_x = 350;  
y = 1;  
y = y+1;  
\_root[“bn”+n].\_y = ((300)+(7\*(n)/(50/(n))));  
n = n+1;  
if (Number(n)\>28) {  
n = n-1;  
\_root["/bn"+n]. \_visible = 0;  
}  
}
