Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 6 - In Flash Player 8, this method returns a
reference to the TextField object created, instead of void.
Parameters

x:Number - An integer that specifies the x coordinate of the new text field.
y:Number - An integer that specifies the y coordinate of the new text field.

Example
The following example creates a text field with a width of 300, a height of 100, an xcoordinate
of 100, a y coordinate of 100, no border, red, and underlined text:
this.createTextField("my_txt", 1, 100, 100, 300, 100);
my_txt.multiline = true;
my_txt.wordWrap = true;
var my_fmt:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
my_fmt.color = 0xFF0000;
my_fmt.underline = true;
my_txt.text = "This is my first test field object text.";
my_txt.setTextFormat(my_fmt);
