Flex doesn't need a FLA (Flash Source file).

A Flex document is, in fact, a source file containing XML and Action
Script that defines the structure and procedure of the client-side
application.

you can see a simple example of CF creating a Flex source at Ben's Blog:

The Flex source gets compiled to a .SWF file

I am using CFMX for J2EE/JRun which is the equivalent of Enterprise.

One final comment.

I haven't done much Flex coding yet, but I really like it compared to
Flash coding--- no timeline/movie orientation, and no Flash IDE (which
drives me crazy!)

HTH
