You're talking about that interlaced line effect that was overused from 2001 - 2004.
You could do it in Flash easily by drawing it and caching it as a bitmap... but the best and easiest way is to do what ifeltdave said, file size should in the bytes so that shouldn't be a problem. Use a transparent PNG and use a bitmap fill with code or if you want to do it manually, just import the PNG into Flash, make sure the image is on even integer numbers (ie. x = 45, not x = 45.3), break it apart, and pull the edges outwards to however large you want the pattern to be (Flash will automatically tile it).
Turn it into a symbol if you want to add color effects, like alpha, tint, etc...

draw lots of one pixel white lines and use the co-ordinates to position them at two pixel intervals.
- flash uses pixels as it's default unit of measurement.thecreativefire

make sure all your positioning is on whole numbers...?
i.e x=5 instead of x=4.8

i've found lines to be a bit odd. i use a 1px high rectangle instead.
