Hi,

    I think this is a very very dumb question but i am nto being able to gigure this out i am a total newbie to flex.

     i have a mxml file e.g. aaa.mxml which has the following declaration

     ........ //some lines of code

     <mx:XMLListCollection

id="listCollectionData" source="{srv_new.lastResult.data.result}" />

  Now if i have some external file e.g. myActionScript.as - how do i access the listCollectionData value defined in aaa.mxml file?

Thank you so much ...

Hi,

         me not clear wether it is an AS file or AS Class

         if you are using ActionScript File then include your ASFile in aaa.mxml

                <mx:Script  source="myActionScript.as" />

         If you are using ActionScript Class then create and object for aaa.mxml then you can use all the Properties of aaa.mxml in myActionScript.as
