I’m getting quite into this Flash 8 way of working now :).
You call the code on the movieclip like: mc_name.fade(speed,direction) - where speed is a number between 0 and your max_blur value, and direction is 1 to fade away, and -1 to fade up. max_blur is the maximum amount you want the image to blur by!

max_blur = i = [COLOR=#000080]30[/COLOR]; [COLOR=#808080]//set the maximum blur value // i is variable to keep track of current blur value[/COLOR]

And you call it like this:
[FONT=Courier New][LEFT]tape_mc.[COLOR=#000080]fade[/COLOR][COLOR=#000000]([/COLOR][COLOR=#000080]7[/COLOR],[COLOR=#000080]1[/COLOR][COLOR=#000000])[/COLOR];

[/FONT]
