[edit] Sound

To add a sound, import a sound,and put it in a keyframe.



[edit] Clock

To build a clock, first create a layer for the clock face. Draw or import a clock face for the clock. Create a layer for each hand. Draw the hands and convert them to movie clips on each layer. Next create an actions layer. Program the actions to make the clock work. Create a second frame for the face and hands layers, create a keyframe in the actions layer and program it to go to and play frame 1. Export the movie as SWF.
