Hello everybody!

I am new to this forum and to Flash MX as well so i continually make stupid mistakes.  
I did the tutorial on how to create a photo album with XML and it works fine - except for the picture description that should turn up with each pic.  
there is a dynamic text field in the FLA-file an i assigned it an instance name - exactly as the tutorial said. I copied the action script from the tutorial and changed the picture paths. The thing is that the pictures change correctly but the description doesn´t work at all. The text field displays a blind text when I test the movie. What can it be and how can I fix it?  
I am glad for every help.l
