You would write AS3 code that uses the 'new' operator to create a component and the addChild() method of a container to add that new component to its parent, as in var newView:Canvas = new Canvas(); myViewStack.addChild(newView); var textInput:TextInput = new TextInput(); textInput.move(100, 200); textInput.text = name; newView.addChild(textInput); var button:Button = new Button(); button.label = "OK"; button.move(100, 300); nextView.addChild(button); Of course, you'd have to determine which components to create, where to place them, and what property values to set into them based on your template info in the DB. - Gordon

The components will hold text and the views should be switched by the user clicking on a button or some clickable text. I'm new to flex and actionscript so any advice or examples on how to go about this would be a great help.
