title: ActionScript 3: Set the text of an animated Dynamic text instance
body: <p>I have a dynamic text field (textLabel) inside a Movie Clip (textMC). I am tring to set the text attribute like this: </p>
  
  <pre><code>textMC.textLabel.text = "this is my text";
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This works fine, until I add key frames to textLabel.  I need to animate textLabel. But when it hits a keyframe, it changes back to the text I created on the stage.  How can I make the actionscript changes persistem over several keyframes?</p>
