flashdevelop workflow

Question for the flash experts. I've swiched to doing my actionscript coding in FlashDevelop - but I cant get autocomplete to work for the movie clips in my fla.

Ive figured out that i can datatype movie clip instances on the main stage from inside flashdevelop by unticking 'automatically declare stage instances' in flash publish settings. So far so good - it works fine with say var button:MovieClip; This enables auto completion for the button movie clip.

The problem arises if that button movie clip has any child movie clips. I can access everything, but autocompletion only works for data typed instances and i cant datatype child clips by going var button.clickArea:MovieClip;

How can i get this to work.

I do realise its not oop, but im ok with that. Im just trying to optimise my workflow.
