Is there a way to Automate Tasks in Flash MX

[Birdsong]

I keep doing these things - for example I make a chart of 40 images. But I have to load all the images, put them all in MC's then set the properties for each MC so it can be available to action script.

Everything is named in a nice way - so automating would be a breeze. But MAN! this is just way to hands on. It would seem that with this powerful scripting engine Flash would also make its authoring environment easily scriptable.

Any info someone can point me to would be greatly grealy appreciated!!

Thanks Xeef - some great links there - looks like JSFL is for MX 2004 only though! Thats too bad - guess I am going to have to upgrade sometime soon.

thanks again,
