actionscript 3 - How to author fla files? -


be prepared :-) question may dumb, have zero experience flash (although have programming , developer skills in other areas .net, java, web development, sql etc)

i've tried google still confused.

my main question: .fla file source or compiled output? if source how author it?

i see .zip archive .fla extansion. guess must source, why can not open flashbuilder? i've installer flashbuilder 4.5.1 (that have) , not offer extension in file/import flash builder project dialog window.

i've tried file/open file. got modal error message window: message "windows cannot find 'flash'. make sure typed name correctly, , try again." in preferences/file associations fla adobe flash editor (default) selected.

it windows 7 machine, fresh flash builder 4.5.1 install.

thanks in advance

.fla's opened in flash pro.

it contains assets (bitmaps, sounds, animations ...). may contain code (i hate coding in it, people do, little programs). , may compile workable .swf (= compiled code) swf , flash pro. fla's can refer external code files (.as). can inherit external class.

i work flash pro make designs (in fla) , code in flashdevelop.

lots of people there code in flashbuilder, , embed assets (at compilation) it. not use .fla.
