Hey,

im having trouble targetting a dynamic text area in my flash movie.

The situation I have is a master swf file calling in a side panel of thumbnails, links and titles

My code to import my side panel is

```auto
_root.gridHolder.loadMovie("flash/gridPlaylist.swf?ord="+ord+"",gh);

```

Runing the side panel as-is will display the images OK and the dynamic text, but once it called though the master swf, the images/links work but not the text

The code to place the dynamic text is (from the sidepanel swf)

```auto

this.bar.attachMovie("photoHolder","photopop"+i,i+400,{_x:xPos, _y:yPos});
				bar.attachMovie("linkage","link"+i,i+1900,{_x:xPos, _y:yPos});
	
				
				this.bar["link"+i].texter.setMask(this.bar["link"+i].mask);
				loadMovie(""+_root["news_piccy"+i], this.bar["photopop"+i].photo.p);
				this.bar["photopop"+i].photo.setMask(this.bar["photopop"+i].mask);
				this.bar["link"+i].linkVar = _root["news_link"+i];
				**this.bar["link"+i].titleVar = _root["news_titles"+i];**
				this.bar["link"+i].synopVar = _root["news_desc"+i];
				this.bar["link"+i].geoVar = _root["news_geo"+i];
				this.bar["link"+i].dateVar = _root["news_pubdate"+i];
				this.bar["link"+i].fullstoryVar = _root["news_fullstory_link"+i];
				this.bar["link"+i].aidVar = _root["news_artid"+i];
				this.bar["link"+i].picVar = _root["news_piccy"+i];
				this.bar["link"+i].windowVar = "_self";
				var mytext:String = _root["news_titles"+i];
			

```

What are your reccomendations on how to target this and any other reasons why this isnt showing?

thanks alot
