Here's how you could dynamically create the XML for that combo box:

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<cfsetting enablecfoutputonly="yes">

<cfquery name="mfg_list" datasource="carnivore">
        SELECT  MfgID, MfgName
        FROM  Mfg
</cfquery>

<cfoutput>
<combobox>
        <cfloop query="mfg_list">
        <item value="#MfgID#">#MfgName#</item>
        </cfloop>
</combobox>
</cfoutput>

<cfsetting enablecfoutputonly="no">

HTH :)

Ps. If enough people are interested, I can put together an example and make
it available online.  Just let me know :)

 We prob need a CF-flashTalk list, but in the meantime I am just now
beginning my journey into dynamic content in flash, and was wondering if
someone had an idea of how to populate a combo box from a query...


I have this so far, please help.

Query

<CFQUERY DATASOURCE="carnivore" NAME="mfg_list">
SELECT  *
FROM  mfg
</CFQUERY>
<CFSET myList = ValueList(mfg_list.mfgid,",")>
<CFOUTPUT>&mfg=#myList#</CFOUTPUT>


Flash


Button action
on (release) {
 loadVariablesNum("http://www.carnivorepc.com/console/qry/qry_mfg_list.cfm";,
0, "GET");
 mfgList.addItem(mfg);
}





"Success is a journey, not a destination!!"
