there are someways to do this but i will not tell. because im not sure about
your way to use the method.
i mean how can i know if you r going to use it for your website or hack and
steal sb's artwork.
if you want .fla docs just ask for it. if the developer or designer does not
want to give them its his problem.
i also do want free software usage all over the world (i m using linux right
now) but if the creator does not there is nothing we can do

Exactly as bickmin said, how do we know your not trying to steal someone elses
work? How do we know you havent downloaded the Flash menu at the top of this
page and want to copy it to *.FLA so you can steal it? There are ways to do it,
but i dont think anybody will tell you because we are unsure of you real intent
of using that specific software.

Are you asking how to convert a swf into a fla? Aren't there decompilers for that.

Decompilers cannot make a fla, only allow you to look at and save some of
the pieces. If they made a fla they would be sued by MM. Anyway, the swf
does not contain all the original source information like layers and labels
etc. It is the flattened, final output from the compiler so there is no way
to get back to the fla from the swf. The best you can do is save the images
and actionscript and make a new fla with the pieces.
