Where is the best place to learn Flash? I believe you can use it in FP?
Also, do I need to buy software?
 
Yes, you need the Macromedia (Adobe??) Flash application (not cheap by any
means).
there are many hundreds of tutorials on the subject.

You can't *create* flash in Frontpage, you can insert flash animations &
movies in Frontpage and publish a web site and view these on the web through
a web browser.
 
There is also a relatively inexpensive program called Swish, that my
graphics guy says does a good job, if you can't afford Flash MX.

I assumed it would have to be inserted, but thanks for letting me know for
sure that it would have to be :)

Not only is Swish cheaper the learning curve is considerably less. The
interface is similar enough to Flash that you can transfer a fair bit of
knowledge gained using Swish to the full version of Flash if you later need
the additional power of Flash.

If you wanted to integrate Flash with ASP.NET you'd need the more powerful
Flash MX 2004 but for most users Swish will do a very good job.
