Hi Pete, I appreciate your patience.
I compile the app using Flex Builder. I have the services path parameter set in the Project Properties dialog, along with the context root parameter. I started with a clean build - in fact,it was an entirely new Flex Project. I re-start the app server (Tomcat) after every change to the config files. I discovered something interesting. The original ActionScript class extended Sprite. I changed this to Canvas, and now it works without setting the endpoint in ActionScript. So I now have what I originally wanted, except that I needed to extend Canvas to get it. Any idea why this might be the case? Did I miss something in the docs about this? Do you have any advice as to what might be the lightest-weight ActionScript class that I could extend that would have the desired functionality? The class I'm building has no visible presence at all. Here is what it needs to do: Create, invoke methods on, and subscribe to messages from RemoteObjects; Manipulate the data returned from the RemoteObjects; Dispatch events. Thanks again for the help.
