I have a button that changes the RBG of an object like this:  
[AS]  
on(release) {  
myColor = Math.round( Math.random()\*0xFFFFFF );  
myColoredObject = new Color (\_root.square);  
myColoredObject.setRGB(myColor);

}

[/AS]

how can i make it so it displays the hex number for the color in a dynamic text box?
