Question about setting colors for radio buttons, plz help

Here is my code:

var curr:MovieClip = attachMovie(“RadioButton”,“mapRB”,_global.depth++);
curr.addEventListener(“click”,this);
curr.label = " Map";
curr.groupName = “MapOrList”;

I saw on google for Flash 6 there was a .setStyleProperty function, but that doesn’t work in Flash 8 for me, I get an error. My question is how do I set the color of the radio button text, or the button itself?
