Whenever I select the pen tool in Flash, in the properties panel it only gives
me an option for stroke color, not fill, so I can only make stroked objects. I
want to make a colored object without a stroke. How do I do this? (running
cs3).

Draw your object and then convert it to a fill.

Modify > Shape > Convert Lines to Fills

The Pen tool is only for making strokes - therefore the fill color swatch is
simply not an option - if you want to make shapes then use any of the shape
tools or the brush tool. You can always draw with the pen tool and then
connect the paths and use the bucket tool to fill them.
