DropTarget ActionScript

Question

i have 8 movie Clips that i stored in an array. i put the movie clips on the stage and i can move them around so everything work fine until now. I made a grid where the mc's can be droped.I saved the grid parts in an array,too. after that gave names to the mc's and to the grid parts like that: mc.name= number.toString(); gridpart.name= number.toString(); the movie clips and the grid parts have the same name like: mc1.name=1 and gridpart1.name=1 and so on. Now I made an if statement to check if the right mc was droped on the right grid part, like that:

if(mc.name==gridpart.name)
{
trace("correct position")
}

But nothing happens. I used "dropTarget", too like that:

 if(dropTarget.name==a.target.name)
{
 //code
}

I don't know what to try now. I thought to put this code in the callback function of the mouse.CLICK event handler because i want that the mc should not be moved anymore if it is on hir correct position. I would be happy if you have a better solution for this problem. I tried to describe my problem so that you can imagine what I am trying to say. Sorry about my English, I am not a native English speaker. Thank you for your time

I think you wrong using dropTarget.name . Try dropTarget.parent.name . This why dropTarget is referred to content of the DisplayObject onto which you release your dragged MovieClip. I hope this will be usefull to you!
