Hi,  
Sorry for the troubles again…\>.\<

```auto

var numOfChars = 0;
setCharacters = new Array();
 
  if (empty1.hitTest(_xmouse,_ymouse,false))
  {
     numOfChars = numOfChars + 1;
     empty1.duplicateMovieClip("setChar"+numOfChars,numOfChars);
     setProperty ("setChar"+numOfChars, _x, "200");
     attachMovie("char1","setChar"+numOfChars,numOfChars);
     setCharacters.push("setChar" + numOfChars);
  }

```

if i want to use them after another hitTest, would it be:

```auto

 for(i = 0; setCharacters.length > i; i++){
  if (setCharacters*.hitTest(_xmouse,_ymouse,false))
  {
   startDrag(_root.setCharacters*);
  }
 }

```

I’m not really good with codings so really have to learn alot…  
Thank you very much.

Regards,
