It ususally means that something else is wrong.

```auto

on (press){
startDrag(this,true); // you had a space between Drag and (this
}
on (release){
stopDrag();
if (this._droptarget == "\2"){
_root.1S = 100;
}else{
_root.1S = 0;
}
}

```

what do you mean, are you still receiving errors in the output or is the “drag” just not working ???

I mean if your syntax is all correct you’ll cease to get errors but if your paths/names are wrong it won’t ‘tell’ you … it just won’t go…

The problem is here: **\_root.1S**.

You should start the variable/object name with a letter, a number may (will) cause confusion.

For the sake of the knowledge, you could use \_root[“1S”]. It will work.  
For the sake of the good coding practice, do **not** start the name with a number.
