[color=red]\*\*Hi there! I want to attach several small movie clips to a big container movie clip, which i then want to put in a scroll pane. I would really appreciate it if someone could help me out.=) \*\*[/color]

I can generate the small clips and attach them to the container clip, but I can’t get the container clip to be displayed in the scroll pane. I get the following error:

**Error opening URL "** [**file:///C|/Documents%20and%20Settings/Roger/My%20Documents/My%20Flash/MyClip**](file:///C|/Documents%20and%20Settings/Roger/My%20Documents/My%20Flash/MyClip) **"**

First of all I created a “Face” movie clip (which was a smiley face) and stored it in the library (giving linkage/export name “Face”). Then I added a scroll pane to the stage (giving it an instance name “sp”). I then put “MyClip” in the ‘contentPath’ parameter of ‘sp’.

I generated the movie clips using the following actionscript:

**var objects:Number = 10; //number of small movie clips to attach**  
**var ypos:Number = 0; //start y position of movieclip**

**//create a big movie clip to contain the smaller ones**  
**var mc:MovieClip = createEmptyMovieClip(“mc”, 0);**

**var clips:Array = new Array(); //array to store small movie clip references**

**//generate small movie clips and attach to big container clip**  
**for (i=0; i\<objects; i++) {**  
**var clipName:String = “clips” + i;**  
_clips = mc.createEmptyMovieClip(clipName, i);_\*  
_clips.attachMovie(“Face”, “face” + i, i);_\*  
_clips.\_y = ypos; //allocate new position for small clip_\*  
**ypos += 250;**  
**}**

\*\*//Register “MyClip” movie clip class for the scroll pane to use \*\*  
**function MyClip () {**  
**this = mc;**  
**}**  
**MyClip.prototype = new MovieClip ();**  
**Object.registerClass(“MyClip”, MyClip);**
