The problems you are having are related to very basic actionscript and object oriented programming knowledge. Don't get me wrong, I'm in no way blaming you, I just want to give you the advice to read some documentation about AS and OO programming because otherwise you will be loosing much time with basic things! You can start with "Programming ActionScript 3.0" from the Flex documentation: http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=Part6_ProgAS_1.html
Now to the problem. You are getting this error because the "Name" field is not defined where you are calling it, but in the FormComponent. If you instantiate the FormComponent with an id of "form" for example, you can access it with: form.Name. Note that it has to be declared public in the component to be able access it from outside the component. Hope it helps!
