I am going crazy! &nbsp;I am trying to change the text in a dynamic text field that is within a button object.<br />
<br />
Is it IMPOSSIBLE to change the text of a dynamic text field that is within a button?<br />
<br />
the important part of code is something like.<br />
<br />
&lt;currentmovie&gt;.&lt;instanceNa<wbr />meOfMyButt<wbr />on&gt;.&lt;field<wbr />Name&gt;.text<wbr /> = &quot;UPDATED&quot;<br />
<br />
If I keep my code the same, but change the button object to a movieclip, I can change the text.<br />
<br />
&lt;currentmovie&gt;.&lt;instanceNa<wbr />meOfMyMovi<wbr />eClip&gt;.&lt;fi<wbr />eldName&gt;.t<wbr />ext = &quot;UPDATED&quot;<br />
<br />
What am I doing wrong?
