assigning instance names to multiple mcs

Question

I am wondering if anyone knows of any extensions or scripts that assign instance names to multiple mcs at once. I have the same mc on hundreds of keyframes and I have to convert them to graphic symbols to animate then back to mcs for scipting but they lose their instance names. I've read a post on this forum that came close to helping me with some javascript but when I tried it I got syntax errors. Thanks!

Sorry, I was talking about Flash.

I had some people help me out with this script

var name = prompt("Name?"); //var name = "face"; for(i in fl.getDocumentDOM().selection) { fl.getDocumentDOM().selection[i].name = name; }

Works perfectly!
