Problem loading?

I am trying to figure out how to load a .txt file in to a dynamic text box. and I am using the Kirupa tutorial.
http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/multiple_dynamictext.htm
But for some reason my text files arent loading.
this is the code on the buttons ment to be linking the to newsBox but its not working :diss:


on (release) {
    loadText = new loadVars();
    loadText.load("text1.txt");
    loadText.onLoad = function(success) {
        if (success) {
            // trace(success);
            newsBox.html = true;
            newsBox.htmlText = this.myNews;
        }
    };
}

and here is what I have made so far
