Sorry I am really new to flex, I'm not sure what you mean by value
objects. The three classes I gave are Java Classes that are
essentially a facade to further backend persistence code.

I remote directly to the ProjectList.java class and return an array of
Projects. I cannot do what you suggested in actionscript as I only
have the java objects that i am remoting to, and cannot reference those.
I am beginning to think I am doing something seriously wrong as I only
have one remote object, and am trying to access java objects contained
in it. Do I need to have some kind of mapping of action script objects
as well?
Any articles and tutorials about accessing java objects would be a
great help to.

Thanks for your patience,

Adam
