You cannot edit swf files - you need the original .fla file, as a swf file is simply a compiled, playable fla file.

There is software that can make the swf in to a fla file which can then be edited in Flash.
If you google -swf to fla converter it looks like there is probably a free one available but sometimes they have restrictions unless you buy the full version of the software.

an swf to fla converter is a waste of time. If you need a fla file then you clearly have flash, so you could just "import" the swf for the same result.

And that result is all but useless.
