I draw a circle to my project.  
I save it as symbol mc\_a.  
I delete the clip from the workspace.  
I decide I wanted an onload event with the symbol.  
I drag it back onto the stage, and edit the action.  
I save the project; delete the clip again and re-drag it out from the library.

My action script is no longer there?

How do I edit / make revisions to a movie clip?
