Flash Stability vent

<vent>I haven't had much call to use Flash since its Adobe release and I
was 
hoping Adobe would have got its teeth stuck into the mass of stability and 
interface bugs that plagued the Macromedia product. Not so.

 I am doing a REALLY SIMPLE thing right now: Tinting an object. My problem is 
that after tinting it the object refuses to be deselected. I can try many 
things until eventually the app crashes. 

 My workflow this afternoon goes like this: Select object -> Tint -> Save
-> 
Crash -> restart Flash -> select object -> tint ->Save -> Crash
-> restart 
Flash .....

 I'm nearly finished. 

 Seriously...... I PAID TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS FOR THIS???!
 C'Mon Adobe- I have programs in BETA which are more stable.</vent>
