Yep. I see the property. What I want to do is use some actionscript to find
out what the movieclip is called.

So. Movie clip with button in. Actionscript: OnMouseover SetVariable to
(name of the movie clip I live in.)

I don't quite understand the functionality of GetProperty _name...because
you need to target the movieclip you are getting the _name property off.
Which means you must know what the name is, so why do you need to get it's
property? I'm confused. Or maybe I'm missing the point.
