Removing TextFields in a loop - actionscript-2

Question

I am trying to create and later remove some Textfields from my stage.
for(i=0;i<Chars.length;i++){
temp = Chars[i] + "_Label";
_root.createTextField(temp, _root.getNextHighestDepth(), 40, 80+(i*30), 200, 20);
this[temp].html = true;
this[temp].vScrollPolicy = false;
this[temp].selectable = false;
this[temp].styleSheet=Stat_style;
this[temp].htmlText = "<h4>" + eval(Mares[i] + ".Name") + "</h4>";
temp = Chars[i] + "_Health";
_root.createTextField(temp, _root.getNextHighestDepth(), 250, 80+(i*30), 200, 20);
this[temp].html = true;
this[temp].vScrollPolicy = false;
this[temp].selectable = false;
this[temp].styleSheet=Stat_style;
this[temp].htmlText = "<h4>" + eval(Mares[i] + ".Health") + "</h4>";
}
stop();
CTRL_Back.onRelease = function() {
for(i=0;i<Chars.length;i++){
temp = Chars[i] + "_Label";
this[temp].removeTextField();
temp = Chars[i] + "_Health";
this[temp].removeTextField();
}
}
The Creating-Part works just fine. But i cant remove them. When I try it out manually by Char1_Label.removeTextField(); it works but i dont understand why it won't work within my loop.

The problem moment is using of this inside function definition. In this case it refers to your CTRL_Back object not for scope your code written on. So you need to use another reference to your scope. In your case it would be this._parent so your remove line should be like this this._parent[temp].removeTextField();
