Sprites?

I'm new to flash. I have used swish for years. I've lost most of my hair trying to learn flash. If anyone has used swish and could tell me the flash equiv. of a swish sprite I would ver appreciative.

I would like to to create a symbol and assign it a transition, then on the main timeline be able to move and manipulate the symbol all the while the symbol is looping it's previously defined transition.

Thanks, Jeremy

is this a sprite? will this help at all?
