**Question | Answer**  
**------------------------------**

**dtext1 dtext2**

**dtext3 dtext4**

I would like one of the dynamic text boxes (picked at random) to display the Answer and the other 3 to be filled in with (Answer+2, Answer-2, Answer\*5).

My problem seems to be in picking the random box and then assigning Answer to it. Any help would be grateful. Thank you.

This is my test actionscript so far…

questionArray = [“What is 5 multiplied by 5?”];  
answerArray = [“25”];

Question = (questionArray [0]);  
Answer = (answerArray [0]);

//This array containing to the four dynamic text boxes  
correctAnswerBox = [dtext1,dtext2,dtext3,dtext4];

//This is what I would like to do -----This returns: \_level0.dtext2

(correctAnswerBox[random(3)]) = Answer
