I think part of my problem with this web service might be related to the XML name space (see page 1150 in the Flex 2.0 Developer's Guide). However, I cannot figure out what the name space should be for the web service.
I was able to use a different web service for my tutorial on using web services that return XML in Flex 2.0. You can read the tutorial here: http://www.brucephillips.name/blog/index.cfm/2006/10/22/Using-XML-in-Flex--Tutorial-Part-4--WebService I certainly appreciate any feed back or suggestions on how to get the WebService code below to work.
