flash (macromedia): I am a beginner. Can anyone recommend a video or CD for learning Flash other than the manual?

Thanks,

Hi Todd,
actually the manuals are pretty good start.
Don't waste money on CD video tutorials , you got all online.
Just use the manuals to familiarize yourself with the flash terminology and
the basic working environment , timelines, buttons , adding actions, tweens , shape and motion,
most of the stuff in LESSONS section under HELP menu.
All the online tutorials assume you have done that , that's why they full of flash jargon
which might be tough for one who did not check the help at all.
You have enormous amount of data available and it vary from really basic to hard-core,
all at no cost. Book or CD on the other hand focus only on particular cases , which is not always
the best way.

Some resource you might find useful (and that's not all yet):
