You might be able to use flash.utils.describeType() to get at the properties of the AC if you don't know them. Although, what I generally id convert the query to a structure in which case you would be able to return an array or structure key containing the columns. Paul Kukiel wrote: No. It's a simple array collection. Ie a ColdFusion query being passed back to Flex. Eg Select firstName, lastName, age From person So in flex it's Ac[0].firstName = Paul ect But I don't know ac[0].columName so is there a way to loop over the properties of the object at ac[0]?
