Bob,
You could also just have the flash movie call the CFM page directly and
have the CFM page return XML data. The downside to that though is that
is requires CF processing every time the flash movie loads. The upside
is that it cuts out the middle man and you don't have to worry about the
XML file being created PRIOR to the flash movie being loaded.
<cfcontent type="text/xml" reset="true"
/><data>
<item />
</data>
Just trying to give you options.

Bob,
It'll be something along these lines... to get you started.
<cfxml variable="XML_results">
<data>
...cfstuff here...
</data>
</cfxml>
<cfset XMLText=ToString(XML_results)>
<cffile action="write" file="#expandPath('.')#\temp_xml\youfile.xml"
output="#XMLText#">
Hope that helps.
Michael
