Or if you have the SWC downloadable you can just copy the file near the FLA file, flash will load it automatically.

So when you rename it to zip you can extract it, probably there is a library.swf in there. This is what you do is this you load it in in Flash like this: import flash.display.Loader; // var ClassFileForHoldingGooglesAPIClass:Class; // Create these for everyclass you want to extract. // function loadAssets():void { var assetLoader:Loader = new Loader(); assetLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, assetLoaderComplete); assetLoader.load(new URLRequest("library.swf")); } When the library.swf is done loading it calls the assetLoaderComplete handler that handles the request and utilizes the getDefinition() method to get the class definition by a string. function assetLoaderComplete(evt:Event):void { // remove your listener evt.target.removeEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, assetLoaderComplete); var appDomain:ApplicationDomain = evt.target.applicationDomain; ClassFileForHoldingGooglesAPIClass = appDomain.getDefinition("com.google.maps.api.Whatever") as Class; } Now can create and instance of the MyOwnButton, simply by calling: var myNewObject:Class = new ClassFileForHoldingGooglesAPIClass(); Or call functions on the ClassFileForHoldingGooglesAPIClass. Hope this is what you mean.
