flash cs3, as2, win xp

i want to import a .wmv file in flash. when a play button is pressed, that video file should be played. but i want the video to be paused when (preferrably) the same play button is pressed again.  
so:  
-how to pause an imported video file?  
-how to control both play and pause of the video with the same button?
