(mx) variable problems

I think I understand the problem more, so I am going to rephrase it.

Here’s what happens:

I click the “studio” button.
The studio object’s “txtVar” value is “studio_txt”

The text box always references _root.txtVar, so whichever menu item is clicked, when the text box is told to update, it will load the new value of _root.txtVar.

The problem is when i click the “studio” button, the text box fills with [color=DarkOrange]“studio_txt” [color=Black]instead of [color=DarkOrange]“our studio is really nice blah blah blah…”

[color=Black]So I need to know how to get the text box to read _root.txtVar as a variable rather than a string, I think.

Can anyone help?
