game scoring in "a set"?

[universecity1]

Hi I am new here this is my first post...I am making a game where every 10 points the player gets a meter goes up 1...think of "10 reps to every set"...
I have the score working (1 point each time) but the set only goes up for the first 10 points...Does anyone know a way to make the set (dynamic textbox) go up for EVERY 10 points added to score?
Code below. Thank you.

on (press) {

_root.score++;

if (_root.score +=10 ) {

trace("on10");
_root.set++;
} else {
trace ("not10");

}
}

try

on (press) {

_root.score++;

if (_root.score ==10 ) {

trace("on10");
_root.set++;
} else {
trace ("not10");

}
}

Hi thanks for quick response. Still no go. I tried the following:
//if (_root.score ==3) {
//if (_root.score = x+=10) {
//if (_root.score +=10 ) {
all the same, only first 10. A friend suggested set up a "lastscore" variable but I'm not quite sure so any other suggestions would be much appreciated
Thanks.

do you want the score to go back to 0 so that it can count up to 10 againon (press) {
on (press) {
_root.score++;

if (_root.score ==10 ) {
_root.score =0;
trace("on10");
_root.set++;
} else {
trace ("not10");

}
}


if you want score to keep going up and the set going up you want a dummyScore too


var dummyScore:Number=0;
on (press) {
on (press) {
dummyScore++;
_root.score++;

if (_root.dummyScore ==10 ) {
_root.dummyScore=0;
trace("on10");
_root.set++;
} else {
trace ("not10");

}
}


hope that helps

I'LL SEND YOU THE GAME FOR HELPING ME (when its done natch) email me
universecity1@verizon.net and anyone else that wants beta versions or would like to freelance flash/director code contact me. I have a few flash
games I already made www.universecity.com will have the info in a month or so. THANKS AGAIN actionscript community!:)
