dont mean to be unkind but good questions get better answers

what is 'print to screen'

if you have problems with code (color, images) then post the code and people will attempt to offer a solution

so far there is no clue as to the problem hence no offers for solution

well you could display it in a dynamic text box. Create a dynamic text box on the main timeline, then give the textbox an instance name... Then assign the string to the textbox when appropriate.. so if your textbox instance name was finalscore_tb - then you would assign the string with:

_root.finalscore_tb.text = stringname

Also, to stop the movieclips from looping.. On the last frame of the movieclip insert this actionscript.

stop();
