Kevin: I dont' use AMFPHP so I can't specifically help you with that situation, but to your first question: I would recommend figuring out a way to get your PHP DateTypes to automatically transfer to Date type's in Flex. I went down both roads (Date and String in flex) and found that there is a Date Type in Flex for a reason. It makes your life easier when dealing with Dates, especially comparing, sorting and performing Date arithmetic. So my recommendation would be to make the extra effort to get your Object to transfer correctly typed properties...

Should Dates & Times be stored as Strings in Flex VO's? If not, what is the proper way to assign a value from the server (which generally comes in as a string) to a Date type in a Flex VO? I have been struggling with this. I am using AMFPHP and mapping my PHP objects to Flex for calls returned from the server, however, my date fields are not mapping. Does a setter function get call when you are doing VO mapping?? Thanks for the help. Thanks, Kevin
