Migrating to AS3 - embedding movieclip

Hi,

Say I have three movieclips that in the flash IDE has been combined together to one parent movieclip. In AS2, I could refer to an embedded movieclip this way:

myMC.childMC1
myMc.childMC2
myMc.childMC3

This doesn’t seem to work in AS3. What works is:

[Embed(source = ‘…/images/assets.swf#shadow_thumb_left’)] public var resShadowLeft:Class;
var shadow_left:Sprite = new resShadowLeft();

But if I try to address shadow_left.childMC, I cannot find the child mc. What am I doing wrong?
