Flash AS3 Error 1180 - Passing text between frames

Question

I am very new to flash and I'm stuck with a program that I am trying to write. Basically, I want the user to type text into a box in frame 2 and then that text will show up in frame 6. However, I keep getting this error:

Scene 1, Layer 'actions', Frame 6, Line 16 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method myData.

Here is the code on frame 2:

var myData:String; stepper1.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE,myHandler);
function myHandler(evt:Event):void {  myData = stepper1.text; }

And the code on frame 6:

output1.text = myData(stepper1.text);

Answer 1

myData is defined as a string not as a function. Have you tried:

output1.text = myData;
