Array is fine if you do not plan to programatically update parts of the data. If you do, use ArrayCollection, because its API dispatches the events necessary to sync the visual control with the changed data.
There is no problem calling multiple functions. However, remember that all the RPC data service calls are asynchronous. You must use a result handler to access the result data. So the functions you call immediately after the data service call can not access the data of that call.

Should this be an ArrayCollection or just an Array or something else? I want to display the TermDesc and use TermCode as the value. AS something related -- after the creationComplete I have this function: public function initMe():void{ //this runs when the application is first created getMembers(); itemNum=Application.application.parameters.itemNum; submittedby=Application.application.parameters.submittedby; getWorksfor(); fetchPO(); // getTerms(); } Is there any problem calling multiple functions - getMember(), fetchPO(), getTerms()? These functions in turn call service_ro.getMember etc. Thanks, Michael Sumner Nations Best Sports 817-788-0034 ext 244 817-788-8542 fax
