Hi  
I am generating the textboxes dynamically based on the user input.

I used tbox.text=“Hello”; but it doesnt seems to show anything in the resultant textbox although trace seems to work

[AS]  
\_root.attachMovie(“Team\_Name”, “Team\_Name”+x, x+p);  
\_root[“Team\_Name”+x].\_y = position;  
//“box”+x.\_y = 20;  
\_root[“Team\_Name”+x].\_x = 150;  
Tno=x+1;  
\_root[“Team\_Name”+x].text=“Team”+Tno;  
// \_root[“Team\_Name”+x].visible=true;  
trace(\_root[“Team\_Name”+x].text); // It works!!  
[/AS]

Can anyone please help?
