I'm trying to access some built in functions but i keep getting errors.
I'm using ActionScript 3.

I'm following this tutorial:
http://www.youtube.c...h?v=oC31Pc5SCHM

stop();

addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,LoaderF);

function LoaderF (e:Event):void{
	var toLoad:Number = LoaderInfo.bytesTotal;
	var Loaded:Number = LoaderInfo.bytesLoaded;
	var Total:Number = Loaded/toLoad; 
	if (Loaded == toLoad)
	{
		removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,LoaderF);
		gotoAndStop(2);
	} 
	else 
	{
		Preloader_MC.Preloader_FillBar.scaleX = Total;
		Preloader_MC.Precent_txt.text = Math.floor(Total = 100) + "%";
		Preloader_MC.Of_Bytestxt.text = Loaded + "Bytes";
		Preloader_MC.Total_Bytes.text = toLoad + "Bytes";
	}
}

Errors:

1119: Access of possibly undefined property bytesTotal through a reference with static type Class.

1119: Access of possibly undefined property bytesLoaded through a reference with static type Class.

In as3 every display object has a loaderInfo property. You should use this rather than the actual LoaderInfo class. I'll assume that you're wanting to monitor the loading progress of your swf:

var toLoad:Number = this.root.loaderInfo.bytesTotal;
 var Loaded:Number = this.root.loaderInfo.bytesLoaded;

That did it.
I'm having trouble with the percent, it just stays at 100%.

stop();

addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,LoaderF);

function LoaderF (e:Event):void{
	var toLoad:Number = this.root.loaderInfo.bytesTotal;
 	var Loaded:Number = this.root.loaderInfo.bytesLoaded;
	var Total:Number = Loaded/toLoad;
	if (Loaded == toLoad)
	{
		removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,LoaderF);
		gotoAndPlay(2);
	}
	else
	{
		Bar.scaleX = Total;
		Percent.text = Math.floor(Total = 100) + "%";
		DT_Loaded.text =  Loaded + ": Bytes Loaded";
		DT_Bytes_Loaded.text = (toLoad - Loaded)  + " :Bytes Left";
	}
}

What you're doing here:

Percent.text = Math.floor(Total = 100) + "%";

is setting the value of Total to 100, then appending a percentage sign. To calculate a percentage you divide the bytesLoaded by the result of bytesTotal divided by 100, or:

var perc:Number = Loaded/(toLoad/100);

That little circle you're talking about, is that the snapping indicator that locks lines to multiples of 90 degrees? Try turn off object snapping, View -> Snapping -> Snap to Objects.
