Flash 9 includes Flash Remoting for ActionScript 3 but it does not include Flash Remoting for ActionScript 2. So if you have Flash projects developed in ActionScript 2 you can’t compile them in Flash 9. Here is how to install the Flash Remoting for ActionScript 2 library files into Flash 9:

  1. Copy the library files from Flash 8 or download the library files directly from here: Flash Remoting For ActionScript 2 Library Files
  2. Copy the contents of the zip file to a new directory created inside the directory: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash CS3\en\First Run\Classes\
  3. Add this new directory to the ClassPath for ActionScript 2
    1. In Flash 9, click Edit | Preferences… | ActionScript | ActionScript 2.0 Settings…
