Hi All,

I’m getting a warning:

```auto

Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant:

```

Here is the deal. I can compile perfectly fine but I was wondering if there is a way I can get rid of these warnings. I have my assets (symbols) in my Flash IDE Library and I’m editing my .as in Flash Builder 4.5. Any way around this? I’ve attached a sample  
screenshot so you guys can see what i’m talking about.
