Hello Jeremy, I am also a fledgling to Flex Application development. I believe the problem you are facing (invalid xml) is because of the redult type you have specified for the flex webservice component. If you didn't specify the result then by default flex assumes it's xml. Search for WebService and resultFormat in Flex help to see the possible values of resultFormat attribute.
It would be handy if you can provide the same code of flex that you have using to call the webservice. Hope this helps.
