Greg, Thanks a whole million because your summary is precisely what I got so far out of learning this new and amazing environment but I just needed to confirm that I was on the right track as to what was happening under the hood and only to make sure that I understood it all correctly.
I have absolutely no Flash background and the closest that my knowledge comes to anything web-ish is from some .NET self learning. I have done tons of business applications with tons of database accessing but in an old and outdated 4GL environment with a fair amount of desktop GUI type of stuff. However, all of that has me thinking about a generic GUI desktop that would sort of do to business database records what browsers do to html pages - navigate them ;) Such a desktop would very much be dynamic and data driven. The repository would be in a database or simply an XML document on a webserver and the desktop would be driven by it and would act accordingly. The old programmer in me says that I should simply read the repository and code generate the required MXML and then compile it on the server. However, the new porgramer in me says that all of the GUI should be dynamically generated. What do you say ;?)
