Need help with vectors

Ok so I got some pretty nice vectors from a website. I import them into photoshop and everything works fine. The thing is I want to put some vectors into Flash but when I do it it has the white background. Theres an example of what I mean below:

Vector in flash: http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f117/jgvgamer/flashvector.jpg

Vector in Photoshop: http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f117/jgvgamer/photoshopvector.jpg

As you can see the vector in photoshop does not have a white background. The vector in Flash does as you can tell by the blue box outline. How do I get a vector into Flash without the white background?

In other words ho do I get a vector into Flash with a transparent background?

Hi Annex,
If you have imported Photoshop layer as Flash layer the shape must appear on transparent background. Change the document bg color in Flash to check it.

BTW, if you have not noticed, the imported graphic is "bitmap" and not vector shape any more.

Thank you so much. I have been trying to figure this out for days.
