Sweet, that was pretty simple. Good tutorial.

Do you know if there it's possible to have the lettering fade in as they appear? It would make it look a little smoother, but I imagine it would require much more complex coding.

Thanks for all you do, sir :-D

After, what it seems like HOURS and HOURS and searching for the simplest AC3 typewriter code, this is by far the BEST and easiest to follow. Thank you! I will definitely be on your site more often.

Ok, I have not been using Actionscript that long. I just tried your typewriter script and although it works, I cannot get past the first frame! When I try to add another layer and then add some frames to it, it keeps giving me this error when testing the movie...

TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at cotc_cube_fla::MainTimeline/gotime()
at flash.utils::Timer/_timerDispatch()
at flash.utils::Timer/tick()

How do I get this to work with more than one frame?

This helped me tremendously, but can I ask if you want it to forward to a second screen to show more text typing how would that be done? For example, when that first window finished it would clear and continue to type again on a clean screen.
Thanks so much
