Hi Pamela, Thanks for the reply. When I use the non-Flex SWC the SWF returns to a more respectable file size but the end result is the same. I just get a white box. The map never loads.
I tried this to see what happens: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; layout="absolute"> <proj:Project xmlns:proj="com.example.project.*" key="12456" width="800" height="600"/> </mx:Application> The map still doesn't load but I see the default ocean-blue background color of the <mx:Application> container. Maybe I'm loading it wrong. com.example.project.Project extends com.google.maps.Map, I set the MapEvent.MAP_READY listener, and I call setCenter(new LatLng(39,-99), 4, MapType.PHYSICAL_MAP_TYPE); when fired. Looking over the examples I don't see anything else that is now necessary.
