Can anyone help me modify a fully functional SWF file to behave slightly differently?

Question

I have a working SWF file which I used a free decompiler to get to the ActionScript of.  I do not know Actionscript, but I know enough other languages to have a vague understanding of whats going on.  I am not certain if this is Actionscript 1 or 2 or 3 honestly so I simply posted here.  The main thing I need to understand is the order in which code is executed within Actionscript.  What I'm trying to do is make a telnet applet which initializes with a giant connect button simply connect by default upon initializing and then if the connection is lost of disconnected function as normal and display the connect button again.  I believe this should be a fairly simply modification just moving a few lines of code around, I just do not have a good grasp on ActionScript.  If someone out there is willing to work briefly on this with me, you would have my gratitude greatly, or even any brief explanation anyone can offer as to what I may want to look into. It looks similar to java, but I just am not sure on too much to want to try to tackle this blindly.
