Thanks for all your help. I final got it to work. This is want I ended up
doing.
I set up my Text Field (instance name "score") in a MC called "ScoreMC".
I have 3 frames in the "ScoreMC".
Frame 1: Set Variable: "score" = 0
Frame 2: Stop (labeled Hold)
Frame 3: (labeled Adding)
Set Variable: "Xpos" = GetProperty ("/ball", _x)
Set Variable: "Ypos" = GetProperty ("/ball", _y)
If ( (Xpos >= 178) and (Xpos <= 178) and (Ypos >=
164) and (Ypos <= 243))
> Set Variable: "score" = score + 1
end if
In the ball MC I just use
Begin Tell Target ("/ScoreMC")
Go to and stop ("Adding")
end tell target
