I remember doing that tutorial from alias. There are a couple more on there somewhere, and the SimlplyMaya freebies are good. The main thing is to just keep fiddling around with all the different controls and buttons, until you figure out what they all do.

This is for anybody, but my friend found this tutorial about how to put 3d scenes into flash.
