Hi.

You need to put code on a frame. Select a frame in your timeline, and then press F9 (Considering you are using windows version and default hotkeys. After that, you can enter your actionscript in this window.

Let say you want, for example, to execute certain code on the click of a button :

//Replace yourButton by the name of your button.
  //This link your function and the CLICK event on your button
yourButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,myMenu);

function myMenu(event:MouseEvent):void
{
	//This is the code to execute when you click on yourButton.
	gotoAndPlay("MainMenu");
}

If you are using actionscript 3, as far as I know, you can only put Actionscript code on frames. You have to select a frame from your time line, and then press apple + shift + A (by default I think.). Then, you can start typing your code.
