So, basically it's not working out. Is this a syntax issue, or do i need to cycle through my xml and create a new object or arraycollection? My syntax for setting up the binding is: <Begin Actionscript> [Bindable] public var XMLListSearchResults:XMLListCollection = new XMLListCollection(); public function handleSearchService(myEvent:ResultEvent):void { XMLListSearchResults.source = new XMLList(myEvent.result); trace (XMLListSearchResults.child(1).children()); datagrid_results.dataProvider=(XMLListSearchResults.child(1).children ()); </End Actionscript> My XML structured like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <mySearchResponse xmlns="http://myapi.myurl.com/ <http://myapi.myurl.com/> "> <status> <statusCode>OK</statusCode> </status> <SearchResults> <totalResults>531</totalResults> <returnedResults>1</returnedResults> <offset>0</offset> <item> <title>Moby Dick</title> <author>Melville, Herman</author> </item> <item> <title>Pelican Brief</title> <author>Grisham, John</author> </item> </SearchResults> </mySearchResponse> thanks, Ted
