on event - instance name in dyn textfield

Is there a way that I can have the name of an instance's name appear in a dynamic textfield?

I have a map with every county in the USA on it and I want the county's name to display on rollover. I have already typed in each county's name as the title for each unique movie clip and instance of each movieclip on the stage (approx. 3,100 times 2). I would prefer to avoid listing all the counties in my script by simply calling to the instance name of a movieclip to appear in the dynamic textfield.

I appreciate your responses very very much. Thank you.

I got it. For anyone else who is wondering...you can target an instance generically with: this._name

This is a question about Python patterns or idioms. Over a period of time, I have evolved a pattern of usage that seems to work better for me than other ways I tried previously, but in writing some documentation I don't know what to call this syntax or how best to describe it. I have not seen it used in other places. The somewhat longish version is that I have implemented an MVP (model-view-presenter) architecture where each "presenter"...

How do I insert a char into the textfield on the keypress event of another textfield? I have two textboxes, "text1" and "text2". Important: "text1" is outside the table. "text2" is inside the table cell. On the keydown/keypress/keyup event of "text1", the character which I entered in the "text1" must display in the textfield "text2".

Hi I am using Access and want to do som SQL in the event builder. I got a Form with a textfield named "Number" and another named "Name". When the user type a number in "Number" i should start the After_update event. Here it should look in a table "T_Errors" if the number is there. If it's not it should show a msgBox "Try another number" or something like that.

I need an event notification when the user types anything in the combobox textfield? I know about the TextChanged Event but the problem is this is also fired when the user selects an item in the combobox which updates the textfield, and there is no way of knowing what fired the event other then that it came from the combobox. I am guessing the only way to do this would involve the keyup & keydown events. How about if the user pastes...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
