Greg, Flex / Flash actually remotes dates without consideration of their Timezone offsets (so 4/1/2009 00:00 sent from a SWF in GMT-0500 remotes as 3/31/2009 22:00 when sent to a server in GMT-0700). This Flex cookbook entry summarizes the problem and provides one possible solution: http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/communityengine/index.cfm?event=showdetails&productId=2&postId=12168 Another solution would be to ditch the Date type altogether for mid-tier transmission and send dates as strings. We implemented this approach on my team with minimal suffering :) You'll obviously have to parse the string when sending or receiving, but if the date is in a perdictable string-format, it will work fine. On the Flex side, use a DateFormatter for sending and transform the received date-strings into dates via new Date(Date.parse(someServerDateString)).
