I am new to Flash, but have taught myself quite a bit so far. Right now I am
having a problem with dragging and dropping action script. What I want to do
is have someone drag a pushpin graphic to a part of the screen. And depending
upon where they drag it something will happen after they click a button. As
far as I could figure out, in order for this to happen I need to know the X & Y
coordinates of where I want the object to be. Here in lies the problem, I can
not get the Y axis to respond correctly.

When I set trace(mv_pushpin._y); in the begining of my code before anything
gets moved I get a correct reading. however, as soon as I move it, and try and
retrace it, it tells me that it is undefined. The X axis works perfectly and I
can get updated readings as to where it is. But for the life of me, I can not
understand why I can't get a good reading on the Y axis. Does anyone have any
ideas? Thanks

you're doing something wrong. most likely it is a path problem.
