How do you write to make an object go to a specific position - and so that you see the movement?  
f.ex;  
myObject\_mc has the position x=0 and y=0,  
and then it should go to position x=0 and y=20?

(I need this for making a menu, with an object following where you go on the menu, so it can’t just be done on the timeline)

Thanks!
