![]()I´m trying something perhaps a little above my level, as I have just recently begun using flash (like a week ago), but I hatred doing this code ,but it does not work. So I hope that you may he can help me!

contact\_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE\_DOWN, pickUp);  
contact\_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE\_UP, dropIt);  
portfolio\_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE\_DOWN, pickUp);  
portfolio\_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE\_UP, dropIt);

function pickUp(event:MouseEvent):void {  
event.target.startDrag(true);  
}  
function dropIt(event:MouseEvent):void {  
event.target.stopDrag();

```
if(event.target.dropTarget)
{
	if(event.target.dropTarget.parent == target_mc)
	{
		trace("tar, on what's wrong, and what exactlyget:", event.currentTarget);
		event.currentTarget.gotoAndPlay("animateIn"); }
	else
	{
		trace("target:", event.currentTarget, "out");
		event.currentTarget.gotoAndPlay("animateOut");
	}
}

```

}  
contact\_mc.buttonMode = true;  
portfolio\_mc.buttonMode = true;

any bright ideas ,on what is wrong and exactly what to do?
