Flex and .Net is my "sweet spot". Either WebService or HTTPService works very well.
WebService examples are difficult because you would need a full VisualStudio project on the .net side. I have a couple simple HTTPService examples on cflex.net. As I recall, these use inline code for simplicity of example. http://www.cflex.net/showFileDetails.cfm?ObjectID=544 http://www.cflex.net/showFileDetails.cfm?ObjectID=556 Further, CRUD examples are also difficult to provide because they require some persistence layer, typically a database. My advice is to just start. HTTPService is the simplest, since you can test the aspx page using querystring arguments in a browser. Do everything in steps, making sure each part works before going on to the next.

I have already bookmarked cflex.net after looking at some code samples there, I believe that it is also a good source. I also got the Flex in a Week video training and I believe I am somehow progressing out quick enough. I also have the Flex documentations. Although I would have wanted it in a CHM format (for faster searching of topics), it is a good place for reference. I am still looking though at the possibility of having a simple CRUD operation with for example an asp.net webservice accessed by a simple flex application. Most of the data examples I am seeing requires one to have some ColdFusion / PHP. Coming from a little .NET background, I have come to accept that the platform for building RIAs in .NET is simply a big headache, but I do like how data services can be ported through their technology.

It will take several weeks or months, but you will truely have a solid foundation.
