This is not much information to go on. Did you try searching for the terms "fbf" or "frame by frame"?
Are you possibly talking about these two posts:
Frame by frame idea
A single image layer to "play" an image sequence!

I was working on a script for "drawing" or "painting" frame by frame and having it save images to a folder to work with my other recent script that loads an image sequence into one image layer.
However due to a recent HUGE GIGANTIC project with a deadline so short I could slide it under a door I haven't had time to work on it.

The way you have to think of frame by frame in AS is more like 'layer by layer' - its a little convoluted but helps you get your head around it?
create a layer, and put in your first frame of animation.
create anohter layer on top and draw frame two.
hide frame one, and create a new layer for frame 3 etc.
Once you have all your frames, put them in a switch layer (doing the above inside a switch layer hides your previous frame so is a bit annoying), then you can either put lay them out manually (boring) or use one of Rylander's two fantasticly relevant scripts to do it automatically:
Loop Switch which puts out your switches in layer order with some other options like spacing etc
and
Random switch which randomises your switch layer assignments, should this be relevant
While you're there, check out his other scripts... some nice supersimple workflow ones i love in there - my particualr faves 'select parent' and 'two ways to frame 0'
