attachMovie is undefined

I've tried using "attachMovie("m_tldotcurr","m_tldot"+i,i);" below, which also doesn't work.  "m_tldotcurr" is in my library.  In fact, I have it manually placed on the screen just so I can see it.  I've also tried hard-coding the level.  While I'm at it, what is the difference between _root.attachMovie and just attachMovie?

_root.attachMovie("m_tldotcurr","m_tldot"+i,i);
_root["m_tldot"+i]._x=200;
trace(i)
trace(_root["m_tldot"+i]._x)
