Problem unloading duplicateMovieClip

I have a ‘start page’ on frame one and the main code on frame 2 incl. a button to return to Frame 1 and this is the problem as when the timeline moves to Frame 1, the duplicated MCs (ie pronounClip + promptClip) are still there.

I have tried to unload the clips :


this.promptClip.removeMovieClip();

but that doesn’t work either…

Can someone solve this please as I cannot…

This is part of the code I’m using:

// main loop to duplicate and place clips
    for(var q=0;q!=len1;q++){
pronounClip.duplicateMovieClip("pronoun"+q,q);
promptClip.duplicateMovieClip("prompt"+q,180+q);
