I followed a very good tutorial here:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/xmlconnector.html
where xml text data is dynamically bound to TextInput and TextArea
components. The problem I'm having: How can I access the displayed data? If I
try to e.g. trace (tiCost.text); nothing is displayed.

If you add the following to frame 1 of your actionScript you can trace it all -
but I haven't figured it out for individual nodes - (am trying to recreate the
tutorial using actionscript so I can access the data!):
var tripslistener:Object = new Object();
tripslistener.result = function(evt:Object) {
trace(xcTrips.results);
};

xcTrips.addEventListener("result",tripslistener);

Thanks, absurd, yes this works.
I found another good tutorial which gives all the answers - assigning variables to the nodes:
