Hi i was just wondering if it is possible to draw a box with as ( that ive done) and then using as select it and convert it into a symbol enabling me to use it later on.  
the code for my box is

```auto

createEmptyMovieClip("pen_mc", 5);
pen_mc.lineStyle(4, 0x1f059a, 100);
pen_mc.moveTo(200, 100);
pen_mc.beginFill(0x137b17, 100);
pen_mc.lineTo(300, 100);
pen_mc.lineTo(300, 200);
pen_mc.lineTo(200, 200);
pen_mc.lineTo(200, 100);
pen_mc.endFill();

```

any help would be appreciated  
thanks
