duplicateMovieClip

[dj fuzzline]

I have a movie clip of just a black square, and I want to end up with a grid 26x25 of these MC's, ie. 676 MC's.

What is the quickest way, using the duplicateMovieClip and setProperty functions to make a grid like I said?

Cheers,

thanks, that's perfect, one more little question though. How do you position the MC's within the movie? For example setting the position of the top-left MC and all the others following that one.

oh, and what does the 'count' variable do?

Cheers,
