So the problem is this:  
I want to place 24 instances of the same movie clip on stage in a grid 6 by 4.  
I’m doing that using a loop:

```auto
            for (var i:uint=1 ; i<=24 ; i++){
                for (var x:uint=0 ; x <6 ; x++ ){
                    for (var y:uint=0 ; y<4 ; y++){
                        var c:Tile = new Tile();
                        c.stop();
                        c.x = x*63;
                        c.y = y*63;
                        var r:uint = Math.floor(Math.random()*24);
                        
                        addChild(c);

```

What i would like to achieve is give a name to eveny next instance (Tile1, Tile2, Tile3)so i could have one of 24 tiles differ from other (go to frame 2 f.ex.).  
No idea how to do that. Please help… 😉
