Convert All Instances of a Graphic to a MovieClip

Okay, so I've created an animation, many parts of which are simple graphics, and everything works fine.

However I've now realised that I need some of the graphics to be movieclips so that I can enable some scripted behaviour. Now, I know how to do this by selecting the frame, selecting the graphic and changing its type to MovieClip, but this only works for a single keyframe at a time which is simply not an option, as I have loads of keyframes for a single graphic, and I have several that need convert.

 

So what I'd like to know is; is there a way that I can convert all instances of a graphic in a timeline into a movieclip?

 

If Flash does not have this capability as standard, then are there any scripts/commands that I can install that do this? I have a very useful one for easily naming a heap of movieclip instances, but it won't convert graphics unfortunately.

If no command exists either, then can anyway point me to some good examples of how to create a custom command? In particularly I'd need to know how to find the current selection (frames) and work through them looking for graphics to convert.
