Mark,
I spoke before I tested, which is always a mistake. I realized I am not
sure, in this scenario, how to set up the event handlers for the
remoteObject in this scenario.
Thanks
Hank

Hey Hank,
I know you can invoke a remote object and pass the args in an array.
We just did this very thing in our data management implementation.
Here's some reference code:
// create remote object.
// notice the placeholder for the DESTINATION_NAME
var channelSet:ChannelSet = new ChannelSet();
var channel:Channel = ServerConfig.getChannel( "my-amf" );
channelSet.addChannel(channel);
var remoteObject:RemoteObject = new RemoteObject( DESTINATION_NAME );
remoteObject.channelSet = channelSet;
var remoteMethod:AbstractOperation;
// get a reference to the operation.
remoteMethod=remoteObject.getOperation( METHOD_YOU_NEED_TO_INVOKE );
// set the arguments. Notice it is an array
remoteMethod.arguments = args;
// invoke the function, get asyncToken
var asyncToken:AsyncToken = remoteMethod.send();
Hope this helps. Let me know if I am not answering your question :)
Thanks,
Mark
