It’s not a compiler error, but a warning about performance.  If you use something like:

myTextField.text += "foo";

Flash CS3 will throw the following compiler warning:

Warning: 3551: Appending text to a TextField using += is many times slower than using the TextField.appendText() method.

Thanks, Flash Team.  You rock!
