If txtDate is the instance name of the text field you would have to use


_root.mcNews.txtDate.text = xmlNews.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;

You embedded the font on the textfield? Worth creating a new text field, embedding the font, and try chucking the XML to that instead; sometimes the font embeds can go a bit squiffy. Just a thought :slight_smile:
