There are plenty of good quality actionscript tutorials around, however, adobe's flash developer stuff is shareware, you know, you can only use it for thirty days, so I'd recommend you try to start writing your code before you actually open flash creator for the first time
was put impeccably into words at DebianDay for me last Saturday, by Knut Yrvin of Trolltech - adults try something once, fail, and then are like "ffs this doesn't work". Children try, fail, and then try again, and succeed - maybe on the second, or even fifth retry. But the thing is that they keep at it and overcome the problems in the end.
