Dear all,

I have these particular movieclips that I would want to count. They are all an instance of mc_invis_table and they each have an instance name : mc_invis_table_1, mc_invis_table_2, mc_invis_table_3 ..... and so on..... till mc_invis_table_18.

How do I count the number of instance of mc_invis_table on stage?

try :

var sum:uint=0;

for(var i:uint;i<numChildren;i++)
{
var nameofMc:String=getChildAt(i).name;
if(nameofMc.slice(0,15)=="mc_invis_table_")
{
  sum++;
}
}

trace(sum);
