No, I meant that they clicked say repeater component that was created at loop 3 vs. loop 6, so that you could retrieve the text of the XML node in the parent application and edit it there, since the embedded SWF has no capability to write to the hard drive. I did some experiments with that and wasn't able to get them to work within the time I had to prototype. That means that the amount of time it _would_ take is a variable I can't estimate. That's not a good bet for my client. It seems that Flex is very dicey in that way, in that even seasoned Flex users frequently come up against stuff that doesn't work as you'd expect. Thanks, though; Amy
