Start/Stop drag & Remove

[font=Arial] I have a move-symbol which is draggable, I would like it to be removable I thought the below script would do it but obviously not - any ideas anyone? - The dragging all works, it’s just the removing that is faulty

on (press) {
startDrag("");
}
on (release) {
stopDrag();
}
on (keyPress “<Space>”) {
currClip.removeMovieClip();
}[/font]

Make sure that the movie clip is at a removable depth (0+). Try this:

currClip.swapDepths(1000);
currClip.removeMovieClip();
