this is the code im using :

onClipEvent(enterFrame){  
clear()  
lineStyle(1,0,100)  
MoveTo(this.\_x,this.\_y)  
lineTo(\_xmouse,\_ymouse)

lineStyle(1,0,100)  
MoveTo(\_xmouse,\_ymouse)  
lineTo(\_xmouse,200)

lineStyle(1,0,100)  
MoveTo(275,200)  
lineTo(\_xmouse,200)  
}

but i dont know why it isnt working? does anybody else ?
