I have a bit of code that is on my main timeline:

var myV:Number=100;  
var myV2:Number=200;

function loader() {  
myV=200+100;  
myV2=400+300;  
fn();  
}  
loader();

function fn() {  
trace(myV);  
trace(myV2);  
}

So far so good.

But i have a movieclip on my timeline, from which i would like to retrieve these evaluated values.  
I need to put these values into a another function which exists in my Movieclip’s timeline.

Any idea how that could be achieved.

Much appreciated.
