Author deleting jpge backgrounds

Is there any way to easily delete the background on an imported jpeg in
flash. My jpeg is some beveled and drop-shadowed text in photoshop.
When I import it to Flash I get a white background with the text. I
want to delete the white background so I only see the text. Is this
possible? Using the eraser tool is tedious and the result is less than
desirable, with uneven and hard edges. Thanks in advance.

do select all and save the content of the move and then past it into another
blank move and you will not save the jpgs that are not being used...bygeorge

Tried this but it did not work. The jpeg is still one piece, text with
a white box for a background.

Don't think this can be done from the Flash Side...
In Photoshop, however, you could save the Bevelled Text Graphic (with
Transparent BG) as a ".png" file as the Ping format retains the transparency
of the image - then import the graphic into Flash...
