Ok so here is what I want to do and I have no idea how to code it.

In a MovieClip on one frame I want to have an input text box and have some words show up randomly.

so i would have a list of 10 words and they would show on in text box that would be called ‘‘word’’.

any ideas?

edit: more info

with variables

word1 = joe  
word2 = tony  
word3 = mike  
etc…

the text box would show one of these words :nerd:  
I hope it makes sense
