I should be looking at Flex 2 migration issues (but i'll take a break). You can have a flex datagrid be populated by a .net dataset my .net webservice looks like this [Webmethod] public DataSet GetDataSet() { //code here }
flex 1.5 <mx:WebService id="service1" ....> in as code function getdataset(){ var call = service1.GetDataSet(); call.onResult = mx.utils.Delegate.create(this, returnWebService); } function returnWebService(result){ dg.dataProvider = result.diffgram.NewDataSet.Table; } i'm still playing around with passing a DataSet back not sure if its possible. oh and flashorb works (its very good).....if you like amf. regards bod --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Clint Modien <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > DataSets won't work... even "typed" ones.
