Hi George, Binding a variable to control is one-way (get). After the data has been returned from the server and the control is populated through binding, you'll usually update (set) the variable's value on the change event of the control. For list-based controls, this can be done for you behind the scene, if you use stock mx components as itemEditors, and/or rendererIsEditor="true". But, in general you'll have to perform the updates manually.
