If I’m populating a dynamic textbox named “stats” this way:

```auto
_root.stats.text="my text goes here";

```

Is there a way to use multiple formats (bold tags and hyperlink) within it with line breaks? For example, a list like this:

**Name:** NitroLiq  
**Project:** My Project  
**Date** June 17, 2003  
**URL** [http://www.mysite.com](http://www.mysite.com) (active link)

Do I have to use Flash’s special way of formatting HTML within the above code? Anyone have a good resource on this?

Nevermind. I think I got it with the htmlText property.
