Maybe I'm just missing some complexity of the problem, but any reason
why something like this wouldn't work? (assuming the scrolling ticker
can accept XML in its dataProvider)
private function resultHandler(evt:ResultEvent):void {
var result:XML = evt.result;
datagrid.dataProvider = result;
scrollingTicker.dataProvider = result.track.notes[0];
}

one is a standard datagrid, the other is a scrolling ticker component
