I'd consider doing something like this:
public static const PHONES:XML =
<phones>
<contact n="1234567890"/>
<affiliate n="0987654321"/>
</phones>;Les writing, less processing and you can even let the bookkeeper do the work (instead of having the XML coded in the file, you could embed it for example) [Embed(source="phones.xml")] public static const PHONES:String; Best. Oleg
