You're going to have to have to write an AS2 stub for AS3 to communicate with. The AS2 stub will interact with the AS2 swf and will have to pass data back and fore through the local connection via handlers. It's likely to be a PIA. If at all possible, I'd rewrite the code in the AS2 swf convert it to AS3.
