    <p>The code below adds a movie clip to the stage randomly from an array of movie clips. Once a movie clip is added to stage it moves horizontally on an x axis by echoing a corresponding sound clip. But my problem is, only the same sound clip is being played for any of the movie clips added on stage. The reason why its happening is of course because of the line: </p> <pre><code>var mc:MovieClip = new enemies[printArray[p]]; </code></pre> <p>Can anyone please tell me how i can individually control the behavior of each movie clip that falls within "var mc". Instead of writing something like:</p> <pre><code>if(mc.x &lt;= -100) { Enem1Timer.stop()} else if(mc.x &lt;= 570){ Enem1Timer.start() } </code></pre> <p>is there a way to write like: </p> <pre><code>if(Enem1.x &lt;= -100)..... </code></pre> <p>Any help is most welcome. Thanx in advance.</p> <pre><code>import flash.utils.Timer; import flash.display.MovieClip; var sound1:Letter1 = new Letter1(); var sound2:Letter2 = new Letter2(); var sound3:Letter3 = new Letter3(); var sound4:Letter4 = new Letter4(); var sound5:Letter5 = new Letter5(); var sound6:Letter6 = new Letter6(); var printArray:Array = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5]; var enemies:Array = [Enem1, Enem2, Enem3, Enem4, Enem5, Enem6]; for(var n:int = 0; n &lt;= 6; n++) { var randNo:int = int(Math.random() * 6); printArray.push(randNo); } var Enem1Timer:Timer = new Timer(1000, 1); Enem1Timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, playA1); function playA1(e:TimerEvent):void {sound1.play();} for(var p:int = 0; p &lt; printArray.length; p++) { trace(printArray[p]); var mc:MovieClip = new enemies[printArray[p]]; addChild(mc); mc.x = 600; mc.y = 200; stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, loop) function loop(e:Event){ if(mc.x &lt;= -100) { Enem1Timer.stop()} else if(mc.x &lt;= 570){ Enem1Timer.start() } mc.x -= 3; }} </code></pre>

    1. COI would like to give credit to Baris Usakli for being able to benefit from his code posted under the Question "adding movieclips from random generated no in array"...the workable portion of this code come from his post - thnx Baris :)

    2. COThe problem is the function inside the for loop. Closures inside loops use the value of the last itearation.

    3. COBaris yet another issue is, i am able to bring a movie clip to the stage only once. It does not continue as a repeated process. each time i have to hit ctrl+enter...is there a way that i can set a timer to a loop so that when something happens to the first movie clip on stage the next will follow randomly.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
