Some strange problem with Flash/As3

Question

Hi,
I am having some strange problem with my flash cs3.
Whatever script I write in as3  doesn't work, even a stop() function doesn't work . But when I change my publish setting to as2 it works fine.
Not sure about the root cause, may be some setting or preference or my cs3 is corrupted.
Can anybody please advise.
Thanks,
Kishor

try this
create a new fla as3,
select frame 1
open the actions panel
paste in the following code
var squares:Array = new Array;
setup();
function setup():void {
    for (var i = 0; i < 25; i++) {
        var square:Sprite = new Sprite();
        //square.name = "square" + i;
        square.graphics.beginFill(Math.random() * 0xffffff);
        squares.push(square);
        squares[i].graphics.drawRect(0, 0, 100, 100);
        squares[i].x = i*3;
        squares[i].y = i*3;
        squares[i].filters = [];
        square.graphics.endFill();
        stage.addChild(squares[i]);
for (var j = 0; j < squares.length; j++) {
    squares[j].addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, dragMovie);
    squares[j].addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropMovie);
    squares[j].buttonMode = true;
function dragMovie(event:MouseEvent):void {
    event.target.startDrag();
function dropMovie(event:MouseEvent):void {
    event.target.stopDrag();
