I believe you will want to use Modules for that.

Question if you would, I have been asking it everywhere and get NO satisfactory answers. How to approach a multi-windowed application, particurarly in FB4? 1) Different Urls? 2) ViewStacks? 3) States? 4) ViewStacks of States (Master-Detail in one ViewStack as two states)? 5) Do States initialize in Flash Builder 4? I had heard they do not????? I am trying to design a 50 or so screen application but I don't want the entire thing to download on first sight? Just what is needed when it is needed.

I normally do all of my data access in a special component and then update a local model with the data. I use binding and ChangeWatchers to respond to updates to the model. I typically use the singleton pattern for my model.

In other words the component would be totally independent, getting its own data from the back end rather than passing it in from the parent mxml? Thanks Dan Pride
