Answer 1

First of all Flash Builder 4 full version was released.

There is a flex component kit that can be downloaded and installed on adobe flash to allow "convert symbol to flex component/container".

The information is at http://opensource.adobe.com/wiki/display/flexsdk/Flex+Component+Kit+for+Flash

A video tutorial regarding the issue is at:

please note that the latest flex component kit is for CS3 and it also works on flash cs4.
