I am using an intermediate VO object (myobj) as my binding source.
So basically, I have a form whose input fields are bound to myobj and
then in my result handler for the webservice call i set myobj = to
event.result. I have 2 problems right now.
1. var myobj:myobj = myobj(event.result) does not work. returns a
null.
2. var myobj:object = new myobj
myobj = event.result
this works but then the form never updates because binding fails.
