I got this MC I load. How could I put a setInterval function in front of it?

```auto
onClipEvent (load) {
    this._x = 100;
    this._y = 400;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
    if (this._y>300) {
        this._y -= 5;
    }
}

```

And what if I wanted to do this with several MC’s in the same movie?

Ehmmm…

I want to make a movie where a couple of MC’s are loaded into.  
I want those MC’s to load on different…intervals?  
So they appear one after the other.

Looking for a way to take my Flash designs to a higher level…

thanks
