setting depth of a movie clip

Hi,

I have several movie clips on different layers that load when different buttons are pressed. the only thing is when the clip on the top layer is loaded any clips below it load on a lower depth and therefore can't be seen.

i know there is a way to trace the depth and then set the movie clip to the next highest depth? (the instance name in this case is 'linkmovie' but i haven't a clue what it is or where i would write it!

any help is greatly appreciated

mx.behaviors.DepthControl.bringToFront(linkmovie);

Works well, but probably not the most correct method, as it has possibly been depreciated.

EDIT: I found the other piece of code I was looking for in my files... this also works...
linkmovie.setDepthTo(DepthManager.kTopmost);

cheers!

cheers for the reply,

In the end I used:

on (release) {
this.swapDepths(this._parent.getNextHighestDepth());


gotoAndPlay(229);

}

cheers
