Where? What error? Syntax errors are the easiest to fix, especially if its a variable you created yourself.

So this is ActionScript? I don't know anything about it, and I can't tell much from your code, but here it goes.

You have a variable called moveSpeed in your onClipEvent(load) method. It also looks like you declared it in the onClipEvent(load) method. After the method finishes, it trashes all your instance variables. SO.... Unless moveSpeed is a global variable, it doesn't exist in the onClipEvent(enterFrame) method.

So basically, you're trying to access a variable that doesn't exist (I think). If you can, post the rest of your code and the error message you're getting.
