Did you bind it directly to a data grid? Not generally. My code is mainly a low level engine that does stuff with data. I manipulate the data in a fairly complicated data management engine I have written. My UI layer currently doesnt have any data grids, but I intend to add that kind of stuff within the next few months with MXML - if I can do it without the kind of pain I am now imagining. > Also, how were you constructing these on the server? CF Query objects? > Brians story is different from mine which I am sure is different for php users. But I construct all of my recordsets with JDBC resultsets. Cached rowsets to be exact. I suck lots of complex queries right out of the database and send them to flash. The data never becomes serialized POJOs.
