Rolu, 

I cannot think of a way to generate the subworld names programmatically and I am trying to avoid manually assigning  different names to each subworld. Instead, I am trying to identify them by their other properties so they can be created generically and share the same functions. It may turn out that I cannot do this but I am hoping I can. 

Is it possible to back into the subworld name from within the onMouseOver function so I can get to the Name property I have assigned to the subworld (eg. vsw.Name = "scout1";)without referencing the actual subworld name (vsw)? I tried using "this.Name" and "world.parent.Name" and a number of other things so I could get away from using "vsw" but nothing worked. 

I am still finding my way around this new environment and probably breaking a lot of rules regarding how things are done. It is still a learning process at this stage. 

Thanks again for your help, 

Norm
