the cfm file code:
<cfinvoke component="gvs_reports" method="Needs_Report"
returnvariable="MyReport">
<cfinvokeargument name="ReportFormat" value="PDF">
</cfinvoke>
the CFC code:
<cfcomponent>
<cffunction name="Needs_Query" returntype="query" output="false"
access="remote">
<cfset var MyQuery="">
<cfquery name="MyQuery" datasource="myDSN">
*** your sql goes here ****
</cfquery>
<cfreturn MyQuery>
</cffunction>
<cffunction name="Needs_Report" output="true" access="remote"
returntype="any">
<cfargument name="ReportFormat" type="string" required="yes"
hint="format type for report" />
<cfinvoke component="gvs_reports" method="Needs_Query"
returnvariable="MyQuery">
<cfreport template="../_reports/gvs_techneeds.cfr"
format="#ARGUMENTS.ReportFormat#" query="MyQuery" />
</cffunction>
</cfcomponent>
This works fine for me, now all I have to do is pass the arguments
from FLEX to the CFC...
