Inner glow?

I know that Flash can't reproduce some of the things you can do in Photoshop
and Illustrator, so I'm trying to find some other way that I can accomplish a
particular effect I need to carry through an entire project -- an inner glow:

Can anyone think of a good way to reproduce the inner glow I have around the
inside of the frame? I can create the same thing in Illustrator or PS and
import them, but then the art never looks as crisp no matter what settings I
try on the import/export.

So IS there a way to do this in Flash? Or failing that, is it possible to
export/import this cleanly from either PS or AI?

Thanks!

Hello,

In Flash 8 pro you have a filter option for the glow effect... to use this
option, once you have create your design on your stage change it to a movie
clip, and that will allow for the filter to be applyed

For AI, may be vectorize the edges??? and export as a swf????
Hope this helps
