That looks correct, and result is the correct event and you should be able to rely on "data" being complete.
trace(data); to check the content.

But the local file is never complete. The amount of data I'm grabbing from the server can vary between a few K up to a couple megs. I am using a HTTPService call to request my data and then writing the file in my result function. I think that the data is not 100% transfered when the HTTPService is emitting the result event. The local file usualy varies from 26K lines of text to 56K lines and it is never 100%. In my result handler the code looks similar to this: private function resultFunction(e:ResultEvent):void { var data:String = e.result.toString(); var localFile:File = File.applicationStorageDirectory.resolvePath("response.xml"); var fileStream:FileStream = new FileStream; fileStream.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, localFileWritten); fileStream.openAsync(localFile, FileMode.WRITE); fileStream.writeUTFBytes(data); fileStream.close(); } Should I be listening for a different event to know when e.result is done populating?
