Tim, No worries about the spelling of my name. ;-)
Thank you very much for your explanations. Once you are experienced enough, you can value the beauty and FLEXibility of a software development concept/tool. I'm still at the beginning of my learning curve, and sometimes the complexity of Flex/Cairngorm overwhelmes me. In the past, when I developed smaller apps with Flash/AS2 I very often found myself in a dead-end situation when clients asked for additional features, etc. I'm familiar with some basic design patterns but I've always missed a consistent framework for AS2. Cairngorm was really an eye-opener for me because now I have the feeling that there's a powerful concept that helps me to develop scalable applications. Since the use of popup windows is quite common, I expected something like a "standard procedure" for Flex/Cairngorm. I'm afraid to find myself in a dead-end situation again if I do it "the wrong way". The Command/ModelLocator approach you described sounds logical to me - although at first sight it seems to overcomplicate the rather simple task of updating "model.selectedUser" and opening a popup window. But I guess it will make the application more consistent once it grows and more and more functionality is added. Thanks again.
