Open Flash (CS4 used here). From the Edit Menu, choose Preferences. In the Preferences window, choose the Actionscript category.
Choose the Actionscript 3.0 Settings button.
Next to Source Path, select the folder icon (Browse to Path). Navigate to the Papervision3D folder you created earlier, then drill down and select the folder indicated in the screenshot below. Papervision3D\as3\trunk\src. The exact path that you use will depend on where you created your own Papervision3D folder.

That's Flash set up to use Papervision 3D.
