how do i make objects move and the touch of my arrow keys<^V>?

1)open a flash document
2)on layer 1 make a circle (hold down shift when making it to keep it a perfectly round circle)
3)with the freetransform tool select the whole circle
4)now right click on the selected circle and convert it to a symbol, in the white typing space type 'test' and make it a movieclip
5)go to the properties tab on the bottom of the screen and open it
6)with the circle clip selected, type in the instance space 'test'
7)make a new layer on top of layer 1 and select frame 1
8)in the actionscript tab type this



EXPLAINATION FOR CHANGE= this is one problem i had when testing this out, was figuring out how to do different ones with different names, on that first line of script: test.onEnterFrame = function() {, when you use a different clip or name you change test to whatever you named your clip

onClipEvent (load) {moveSpeed = 20;}

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT))
{this._x += moveSpeed;}
else if (Key.isDown(Key.UP)) {this._y -= moveSpeed;}
else if (Key.isDown(Key.DOWN)) {this._y += moveSpeed;}
else if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {this._x += moveSpeed;}}

function myFunc1():Number{
    return 11+1
}
function myFunc2():Void{
    if(myFunc()==12){
         //....
    }else if(myFunc==13){
        //....
    }else if..........
}

function myFunc2():Void{
    var returnVar=myFunc()
    if(returnVar==12){
         //....
    }else if(returnVar==13){
        //....
    }else if..........
}

ok, you know what is fun, think of crazy scenarios,
animal + clothes + weapon
armidillo + cowboy clothes + rocket launcher
bear + ballerina clothes + knife
cat + business suit + violin case (machine gun)

crazy ironic oxymoronish opposites
priest having a margerita
artix punching an angel
a mouse afraid of an elephant
femanists groups getting what they want

mathius, make the cat
somebody, make the armidillo

i've already made a chicken with an egg launcher AND box armor for sneevils. if you wanna see them, you'll have to post in my thread lol. or i'll get the cat out here

This is probably a really stupid question, but is it possible to tell which key is being pressed ( like a, y, etc. ) from the key code without using if, if else, if else, etc.?
Arrays maybe?
