You can pass an array to the datagrid's dp

I am testing fluorine by accessing an Oracle database using ASP.NET (VB). In flex builder I have done a breakpoint to look at the object returned. Below is the debug info about the object; ===================================================================== this = main (@35050a1) event = Object (@3444d81) PERSON = Object (@3444f21) serverInfo = Object (@34449a1) columnNames = Array (@3617a91) [0] = "PERSON_NUMBER" [1] = "PERSON_NAME" [2] = "PERSON_ORIG_NUMBER" [3] = "PERSON_SSN" [4] = "PERSON_DATE" [5] = "PERSON_PERSON_STATUS" length = 6 cursor = 1 id = null initialData = Array (@33d7131) [0] = Array (@34200a1) [0] = 1504 [0x5e0] [1] = "SMITH, JOHN" [2] = 921504 [0xe0fa0] [3] = "123456789" [4] = Date (@344ee99) [5] = "D" length = 6 [1] = Array (@3518581) [2] = Array (@3518791) [3] = Array (@3518911) [4] = Array (@3518f41) [5] = Array (@35184f1) [6] = Array (@3518851) [7] = Array (@3518be1) [8] = Array (@3518b81) [9] = Array (@35183d1) [10] = Array (@3518f71) [11] = Array (@3518d91) [12] = Array (@3518a91) [13] = Array (@3518701) [14] = Array (@3518671) [15] = Array (@35185b1) [16] = Array (@3458bb1) [17] = Array (@3458b21) [18] = Array (@3458b81) [19] = Array (@3458a61) [20] = Array (@3458611) [21] = Array (@3458641) [22] = Array (@3458311) [23] = Array (@3617d01) [24] = Array (@3617cd1) [25] = Array (@3617c71) [26] = Array (@3617bb1) [27] = Array (@3617c41) [28] = Array (@3617c11) [29] = Array (@3617be1) [30] = Array (@3617af1) [31] = Array (@3617ac1) length = 32 [0x20] serviceName = "com.TheSilentGroup.Fluorine.PageableResult" totalCount = 32 [0x20] version = 1 objIn = Array (@33d7131) ===================================================================== ColumnNames contains the list of the column names from the query, and initialData contains the actual data as an array of arrays. What I am trying to do with this is to populate a dataGrid. Any thoughts on how to map one of the above type objects to an array collection? BTW, I am returning a dataSet Object from ASP.NET (VB) like so; objDS = New DataSet("DataSet") objDS.Tables.Add("Ward") objDA.Fill(objDS, "Ward") Return objDS The final goal of this exercise is to come up with a method of converting all of my existing HTTPService type requests to Fluorine, and I have been returning XML from the HTTPService. I am trying to eliminate XML in these requests due to its verbocity (trying to reduce network traffic). Paul
