Hi again, following the information provided, I tried the tutorial Wesley provided, only the information in the article is of course rather sketchy - as the complete detailed description was provided in the source code used for that banner example. Unfortunatelly the sources provided are not available anymore (links, dowloads, et.c. don't work), as this article is outdated being 5 years old.
So I can't really make much out of this. On the other hand what is described in that old article is generally correct, and this is the way I know I have to proceed. Only I still have to look for something more up to day and detailed enough for me to study and adapt to my case. Specifically, I look for an current BlazeDS/Tomcat/MySql environment setup detailed description for a Flex client connected to database by Remote Object procedures. Besides working examples, I still look for a book to read on the subject and documentation, in extend to BlazeDS developer's guide.. So while the question remains open and have to wait for any other answer leading to some consice piece of info, I thank you both valdhor and Wesley for trying to help me.
