printing string onto stage

How can I print a string onto the stage using actionscript (flash8)? I dont want to use a textbox

_root.createTextField("mytext",1,100,100,300,100);
mytext.multiline = true;
mytext.wordWrap = true;
mytext.border = false;

myformat = new TextFormat();
myformat.color = 0xff0000;
myformat.bullet = false;
myformat.underline = true;

mytext.text = "this is my first test field object text";
mytext.setTextFormat(myformat);
