  var mc = this['myMovie'];
  mc.goToAndPlay(1);

  would also work.

  your problem is most likely the 'this' issue. it tends to fuck up when used inside functions. i usually use something like this:

  thisRef = this;

  function playClip(mc) {
  thisRef.mc.gotoAndPlay('etc');
  }

  playClip('myMovieClip');

  in this case you don't need the square brackets or the eval statement. you only really need them when you're using variables in the name of your stage objects.

  (ie:
  mov = thisRef['mov_' + i]; )

  hope that helps a little
