Hello all,

Hopefully someone can help me out because I am running out of things to try. First off, I know next to nothing when it comes to Actionscript so perhaps my problem is not that difficult to solve.

I have used one of the tutorials that is available here found at ([www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/ascript\_text\_animation.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/ascript_text_animation.htm)) because I really loved the effect.

I have implemented this tutorial in my presentation and my problem right now is removing the movie clip because when I advance to my next scene in my presentation this movie clip displays.

I have tried removeMovieClip (mcInstanceName);  
but it is not working.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
