How to create a new class

Question

Hi,
I'm trying to create a new class called Questions, which has
two properties (type and condition).
The action script is saved in the folder myComponents under
the project.
When I compile the Main app, I get the following error
message:
"1172 Definition myComponents:Question could not be found."
Why?
How do you call a constructor for a new class, that is not an
extension of an existing class?
Regards
/Acke
//-----------Class----------//
package myComponents
// Import all classes in the mx.events package
import mx.events.*;
public class Question {
// Public constructor.
public var Question(){
// Call the constructor in the superclass.
//super();
// Define properties and methods.
// Define public vars.
public var type:string;
public var condition:string;
//------Main----------//
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
layout="absolute"
xmlns:MyComp="myComponents.*">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import mx.controls.Alert;
import mx.events.CloseEvent;
import myComponents.Question;
etc, etc....

Here is a test class I created a while back, although this
one does extend Object it might help you out a bit with your
constructor issue:
package com.evilest
import mx.controls.Alert;
public class Testing_class extends Object
private var message:String = new String();
public function Testing_class(input:String) {
this.message = input;
public function showAlert():void {
Alert.show(this.message, "sup");
}
