Mousedown/OnRelease for each dynamically generated movieclip

[GSB]

I am dynamically creating movieclips on stage with this code. Each movieclip
has a textfield txtInfo inside that will display some information.

for (var i = 1; i<j; i++) {
myClip = _root.attachMovie("mcInfo", "mc_info"+i, i);
eval("mc_info"+i).txtInfo.Text = "Assign Text depending on i ";
}

With this code assuming j = 5, I now have 5 movieclips on stage each with
different text displayed in them.
I want to be able to perform an action depending on which movie clip I
click.

How can I track my mousedown/onRelease for each movieclip dynamically placed
on stage so that it is

eval("mc_info"+i).onRelease = function() {
-- perform action
};
here , i can be any value from 1 through j (from previous code line)

put an invisible button in the movie clip.

Thanks. That worked

another method is -

for(var i=1; i<6; i++){
myClip = _root.attachMovie("mcInfo","mc_info"+i,i);
myClip._y = i*30;
myClip.txtInfo.Text = i;
pressed(myClip);
}

function pressed(ref){
ref.onPress = function(){
trace(this);
};
};
