You can import AVI into Flash, but it is actually in the Flash that you make the interactivity. There are basic tutorials and such that come with Flash that can teach you how to do this, and then forums, like Flashgoddess, where you ask questions when you get stuck.

Welcome to the forums.

panos99 - well with swift 3d (from erain) you can output vector graphics and then import them into flash. In v3 of swift3d you can also output raster (bitmap) renderings. The advantage of vector output is that it is used by flash and unless the image is extreemly complicated it takes up way less space then bitmaps since in bitmaps every pixel is being kept tracked of while in vector images the geometry is defined by math. Also vector images are better cause they have no backgroud and therefore can be integrated in existing animations way faster and better. wow not bad for my first post.
