Application Creation question

Hello all, I have another question for you:
My client wants to build a map where when you rollover a state, a tooltip with certain information shows up. That is been taking care of.

Now the issue is this one. The client right now only have service in 26 states. He wants me to create the 50 something states, activate them but leave them off until they cover those states.

I was thinking to create a form where is a pair of radio buttons for each state (ON and OFF) and that activates the state inside flash but I dont know how to start. this is my diagram of what the AS should be:

If State1 == (Either 1 for ON and 0 for OFF)
the activate state1 or variable
Else: Do nothing.

I dont know how to call the function from the "radio buttons" and how to activate these function into flash...

Please help dudes!

I would create an XML file with your states and base your actions off that. Best method in my opinion.

Thanks, but I still dont know where to start. Im kind of newbie in creating applications and I need to give quote of hours to my boss tomorrow. Once again, thank you for your help but I need something with more description.
