makeScriptedSprite or similar for DirectorMX (not 2004)

[retrodans]

In my program, the code will calculate the number of members to go on the screen. Now I know to add a member you need to do a replace with one thats already on screen, but I dont know how many members will be required, so dynamically creating them using lingo would be excellent. I found information on makeScriptedSprite() for MX2004, but I only have MX. Anyone got any ideas of a way around this?

Say if you want to create a sprite 100 with a member "madCow", you will do:

[tt]--
sprite(100).puppet = 1
sprite(100).member = member("madCow")
--[/tt]
