hello smazherhg.

there is a sample chapter of creating custom tools and XML to UI dialog box:

from the book Extending Flash MX2004:
http://www.friendsofed.com/books/1590593049/

to add a tool to your toolbar: once you have your jsfl, xml and icon in the Tools folder, you would then navigate to Edit->Customize Tools Panel.

the whole book is brilliant. If anyone is in london this week, i will be presenting about jsfl @ the london mmug, showing a tool, a command and a windowSWF.
