I need some direction!!!

[Chaan]

I love Flash to death. I am no beginner but am nothing to write home to mom about.. I really enjoy Flash but am having a really hard time with Action scripting. I need some direction on where to go to learn it. I need to start from scratch when it comes to this. This is obviously the only way to make amazing things in Flash. I have made movies that will work,but nothing amazing. I would love to know where I could start at. Like step by step instruction on how to use actionscript...Please help!!!!

Actionscript: The Definitive Guide
by Colin Moock

Definately the best actionscripting book I have ever used, really good.

PS-Don't buy phillip kerman's "Actionscripting in Flash" 'cause it's not very intuitive, written in a very confusing way.

And some tutorials are handy too ! Sometimes deconstructing a movie can be very clarifying (and since you already know the endresult, you know what you're doing it for). And for any troubles, there's the actionscripting forum ! I read many posts there just for insight purposes.
