Go into your Flash Publish Settings and select the option to Permit Debugging. Then run the file again and review the error message. That can help by including in the error message the line number where the error occurs. Once you know which line is involved you can try to use the trace() function to isolate which element is undefined.

Go into your flash publish settings and check the box "permit debugging" now the error should tell you what line is causing the problem.

Overall it means that something doesn't exist, have the name you think it does, or is in a different scope at the time that line is trying to do something with it.

Is that the complete error message that you get or is there more information that you did not copy from it?

If that's all you get for the message, then it looks like there might be something named update somewhere that is involved with the error. If you can locate something of that then you should be able to use the trace() function to try to isolate what element is coming up as undefined.

That is the whole error message and ok i think the problem lies in the external action script file since there is nothing related to update in the main file.
Also sorry for being so bad at AS3 but how do i use trace?

Thanks for replying again!
