Assigning a variable name to a text field

You can associate dynamic and input text fields with an ActionScript variable name, which lets you get or set the contents of the text using ActionScript.

Create a new document from the Flash Lite 1.1 Symbian Series 60 template and save it as dynamic_text.fla.
For more information about using Flash Lite document templates, see Using Flash Lite document templates in Getting Started with Flash Lite 1.x.
Create a dynamic or input text field on the Stage, and select it.
In the Property inspector, in the Var text box, type nameVar.
The value that you enter must be a valid variable identifier--the first character must be a letter, underscore (_), or dollar sign ($), and each subsequent character must be a letter, number, underscore, or dollar sign.
In the Timeline, select Frame 1 on the layer named ActionScript.
Open the Actions panel (Window > Actions) and enter the following code:
```
nameVar = "George Washington"
```
Test the application in the Adobe Device Central emulator (Control > Test Movie).
