There is a little square box that allows you to change the type of

information you ask Flash to process.


There are 3 basic types 

1) The normal text (abc) which is call String Literal 

2) Expression (=) which allows you to put epressions and anything not a

String Literal for Flash to calculate.

3) Numbers (123)


This button also allows you to go to the Expression editor.


The choices you have varies from action to action.
