Thanks Gordon that did it.
Final outcome: var numData:Number = hitData.item[@ + strRegDataSrc];

Well the reason is because when trying to get to the
hitdata.item.(object) I cause problems when using XML. Since
everything in my app is dynamic I cannot hardcode the hitdata.item
statements in my dataTipformat function. So I cannot use
[EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have tried
hitdata.item.(@ + someVar), but it doesn't work. I would be more
than happy to use XMLlist or XMLListCollection, but it causes problems
with hitdata and other thingsseems to cause more work later on
though it saves me from having to turn it into an ArrayCollection.
If you can tell me how to make XMLlist work using hitData.item
statement I would be greatful.

I know its possible to loop over the XMLList, but I am not sure how
to
do it. I have used the XMLListCollection, but then when I try to use
the XMLListCollection as a data provider I have use the @ symbol
as
you suggested below.
Using the @ cause more problems because when try to make my app
dynamic I have to try things like [EMAIL PROTECTED]) and it gets
messy when I have to try to capitalize things like
[EMAIL PROTECTED]({somevar}).
So if you could help with how to loop through the XMLList it would

hitdata.item[@ + someVar]. If someVar is revenue, then hitdata.item[@revenue]
is the same as [EMAIL PROTECTED],
in the same way that when o is a plain Object o[foo] is the same as

the XMLListCollection as a data provider I have use the @ symbol as
you suggested below.
Using the @ cause more problems because when try to make my app
dynamic I have to try things like [EMAIL PROTECTED]) and it gets
messy when I have to try to capitalize things like
[EMAIL PROTECTED]({somevar}).
So if you could help with how to loop through the XMLList it would
make my code much cleaner.
Thanks, J

You can loop over the XMLList and build that ArrayCollection.
Alternatively, you could use an XMLListCollection and do:
var xlcBills:XMLListCollection = new
XMLListCollection(myXMLBillsList.month.bill)
...no loop required. A labelField spec might be:@name or @Amount.
I don't do charts yet so you are on your own there.

Subject: [flexcoders] array of arrays and XML
Hoping to figure this out. What I am trying to do is get a result like
this (ArrayCollection).
public var expenses:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([
{Expense: Taxes, Amount: 106976},
{Expense: Rent, Amount: 147776},
{Expense: Car, Amount: 79554},
{Expense: Gas, Amount: 39252},
{Expense: Food, Amount: 128351}
from this XML:
list
month monthname=Jan-04 income=14000263 average=80052
bill name=Taxes Amount=106976 customers=25670/
bill name=Rent Amount=147776 customers=25670/
bill name=Car Amount=79554 customers=25670/
bill name=Gas Amount=39252 customers=25670/
bill name=Food Amount=128351 customers=25670/
/month
/list
Then use it to plot data on a piechart. I am pulling the xml in via a
httpservice. So I am guessing I need to iterate through the xml and
create an arrayCollection of arrays? But I can't figure that out.
Then how to use the Expenses:arrayCollection as a piechart dataprovider.
Thanks in advance.
