Easy way: copy/paste, but you won't maintain editability. There is a plug-in for Illustrator to export to Flash but I don't know how good it is. With PSDs you're best importing them as PNGs, it's the only way to preserve transparency.

do you know where i might find this plug in.

then ill try it out and let you guys know how it works.

thankyou very much fig

it helps

illustrator 9 has an option under export where you can export your illustrator file as an .swf. it works very well. there is the occasional glitch but they dont happen often.

I've never had a problem just going to >>File>>Import and importing *.ai files in Flash 4.

In fact, If you attempt to import a *.eps it tells you that you need to save/export from FreeHand, Corel, or Illustrator as a *.ai

This way also maintains editability.
