How to assign class to movieclips in macromedia flash mx 6.0

Question

I'm using the Flash MX IDE to add in objects and FlashDevelop for AS3 programming. How do I assign a class to an imported image I've turned into a movieclip?

Opening the library and going into 'linkage' for the object, there is no form field for class or base class like there are in newer Adobe Flash IDEs.

Answer 1

Flash MX 6 is a very old product and uses ActionScript 1 - there are no classes in AS1.

Flash CS3 is the earliest version that can handle ActionScript 3.
