problem with duplicateMovieClip

[m.stenbaek]

I can't get to duplcateMovieClip(), createEmptyMovieClip(), or
createTextField(), when using vars like this :

//just some vars for example
var i = 0;
var startX = 5;
var startY = 5;

var depth = this.tekst.getDepth()++;
var txtName = "txt"+i;
_root.createTextField(txtName, depth, startX, startY, 400, 20);
depth++;
//or
this.tekst.duplicateMovieClip(txtName, depth);
//won't work either !
//end

If i use trace() the vars read clear the names that they are given !

What am I doing wrong ??

change your var depth=this.tekst.getDepth()++ statement to:

depth = this.tekst.getDepth();
depth++;
