Hey Leandro,

I was able to fix the error with the following actions:

1. REMOVE changeText (0);
2. Remeber that the XML Nodes starts with 0 so if you have 5 XML nodes you slideNum == 4

EXAMPLE
——————————————————-
changeText(0);

function onSlideTimer(evt:TimerEvent):void {

if (slideNum == 4) {

I receive the same error when testing the Source code you provided.

TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.
at as3_fla::MainTimeline/changeText()
at as3_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()

Thanks for any help in advance… Thanks!
