    in general I find using SWFs instead of AS files to include functionality...

    Say for arguments sake that I want to create a Flashmovie that draws a ball and then moves it across the stage, bouncing when it encounters a wall.....

    I make a custom class which draws balls

    I make a custom class to update the position of the ball

    I make a custom class to make the ball bounce at given perimeter

    I create an SWF for each of my classes.

    I create an SWF for my project and load each of the others to access the functionality given by each class...

    then if I want to change any aspect of it I've only one FLA to change and export the SWF to the relevant directory......
