Help! - multiple stops - movie clips

OK here is my problem;

I have one movie clip(myMovieClip is located on the _root timeline) that contains six separate movie clips which are all running at the same time. I want to simultaneously be able to stop all the movie clips contained within my _root movie clip . I know I could target all six different clips and stop them with this code:

//buttons code which is located within the _root timeline

myMovieClip.movieclip1.stop();
myMovieClip.movieclip2.stop();
myMovieClip.movieclip3.stop();
myMovieClip.movieclip4.stop();
myMovieClip.movieclip5.stop();
myMovieClip.movieclip6.stop();

There has got to be a quicker way to stop everything within myMovieClip.

Can anyone help??

Thanks

yeah… there’s an easier way. :wink:

for (var clips in myMovieClip) myMovieClip[clips].stop();
