Thanks for the hint. Yes, I can actually read the file and display it in a tree 
control, for example.

The format of the XML is something like this (simplified):

<ac val="435">
   <ph val="2010011">
   <ph val="2010012">
   <ph val="2010013">
   <ph val="2010014">
</ac>
<ac val="801">

   <ph val="2011011">

   <ph val="2012012">

   <ph val="2013013">

   <ph val="2014014">


</ac>

Currently, my biggest problem is this: If I just read in the XML into Flex 3 
with an mx:XML tag, everything works fine. I can even search for specific 
values and highlight the search result in the tree.

However, that's for the simplified test scenario. The actual XML file is about 
25MB, and I have to download it weekly (from the National Do Not Call 
Registry). So, I thought I had to do something more elegantly (with HTTPService 
and XMLList and/or XMLListCollection) to read in that large XML file.

And, again, I can read in and display the contents of the XML file, but I just 
can't search through the contents of the tree control anymore when I switch 
from a simple <mx:XML> tag to either the XMLList and/or XMLListCollection.

Any hints? Links? Dope slaps?

                Do you know the name of the node it would be in? If so, 
something like
this should be all you need:

uberXml..(phoneNode == "555-555-5555" )

HTH,
