William, thanks for your reply. After a lot of searching I realized that the flashvar idea was not going to work. Next I tried adding custom tags to the AIR Application Descriptor File to pass in startup values. That didn't work out to well either. Finally I coded to get the XML via http. That worked fine.
Thanks Again!
