Hi guys,  
I’ve an array of movieclips created via code that have some textfields. Then i have added some listeners to the movieclips.

Here the code:

```auto

arrNot*.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, titoloOver);
private function titoloOver(e:MouseEvent){
        var nome:String = e.target.name;
	TweenMax.to(curs,1 ,{y:contMain.getChildByName(nome).y + 23});
}

```

This code moves a cursor calculating the y coordinate depending the moviclip that is mouse overed.  
Now the movieclips have some textfields so when i mouseover the movieclips all works ok but when i mouseover the textfield i receive a #1009 error.  
Hoe can i do?
