I am opening my mind to be lead down the path of the masters.

I have created movie clips of hand drawn symbols; a1, b1, c1, a2, b2, c2…etc.

I would like a text field to supply the input string, parse the string, then output the same string graphically with the MCs depending on a style (1 or 2).

ex: User inputs HELLO and selects style 2, on a button click a series of movieclips appears; h2,e2,l2,l2,o2.

Show me the way, Sensei.  
Any help is certainly appreciated.
