I'm wondering if any of you know some simple software to create flash tutorials; like those flash tutorials on demodemo.com for instance. I'm writing a software for my school and because some of the functions are too complex to illustrate in either texts of graphics, I'd love to walk the committee through a more interactive demo.

Of course, since I'm doing it entirely for free, I'd prefer not to pay for the software. I have found two, Demo Builder and Instant Demo, which both require me to pay to use the software legally. I don't really need to create a very sophisticared or graphic appealing flash tutorial, but some moving motions will certainly increase my audience's understanding.

Thanks for sharing.

I've used Wink (http://www.debugmode.com/wink/) in the past. It's not bad.

Use Macromedia Captivate, it is expensive but has a 30 day free trial with no obligation to buy.

If you do not want mush hassle and are good at powerpoint try http://www.geocities.com/ajsoftpk/ppt2swf.html

I have used this tool, its is nice and simple.

If you are looking for something advanced then you should try Cantasia Studio which is not free but worth it.

Thanks guys! Both Wink and Captivate seem like a good choice to start with.
