hey ive been trying to use a value from an array which is “MC1” to call an onRelease function of a movieclip with the instance name MC1. heres my attempts but they have not worked sofar.

```auto

var CorrectClip:MovieClip = Question[Answer][0];
trace(Question[Answer][0]);
CorrectClip.onRelease = function() {
 trace("WOOO");
}

```

Ive attached the whole file with all the code in it the above is just the part I am unsure of how to do.
