Thanks, Mike.

I can tell I've got a lot to learn...

Would you be interested in writing an example of code here
that shows how a piece of data, say a name is queried from CF,
sent to Flash, the code that Flash uses to receive it and translates
it into an ActionScript datatype?

Just so I can see one example of everything working together?

It looks like we've got three things going:  a .cfm file, a .cfc file,
and the ActionScript "page."  I've seen the coded examples, and the
CF makes sense, but the ActionScript...hmmm.  It's just a lack of
knowledge in how the AS works in conjunction with Flash Remoting and CF.

If there's already an example of this somewhere, just point me to it,
or if this takes too much time, just let me know.  I'll completely
understand...

Rick

it depends on the code. If you like, you can send me the code snippet
offline and i can answer your question.

basically, though, when using Flash remoting you can call ColdFusion
components from Flash as if they were local ActionScript methods. Flash
will receive whatever the component returns (with the result converted
into an ActionScript data type).

each Result represents the data returned from calling a method in a
ColdFusion component.
