I am pulling my hair out here... I can very easily pass 1 variable at a time
from C# to Flash like this: C#: Flash.Result = whatever Flash: function
whateverCode_Result( result ) { myText = result; } probably about the
simplest thing I have ever coded. For some reason, I have tried every possible
method I can imagine, and then some to pass more than 1 variable at a time. I
have tried Array, ArrayList, HashTable, and a few other ideas. I have googled
this until I was blue in the face, only to find sparse or incomplete examples.
Nothing I try seems to work. I need some example code to work with, wether it
be using an Array or whatever it may be. I need the code from start to finish
for C# and Flash. Can anyone please help? Thank you for any help you can
give.

Are you passing this via an open connection (XMLSocket or XML.load) or are
you setting flash variables on a web page?

If you are using an open connection, then XML is the way to go. Otherwise,
roll your own parser and don't use native C# objects.

I have flash projects that are on web pages that open connections back to a
server and just communicate with XML. I wrap the data on the server in XML,
then it is simple to unwrap in flash with it's XML objects.

actually I figured it out. I used an object and then called it like this in
Flash: myVar = result[0] myVar = result[1] I am actually sending data from
Flash to the C#, handling it, updating a SQL DB, all kinds of good stuff, and
then only returning 2 or 3 simple values. All of the logic is happening on the
server, so I am really just using the flash to display the leftovers from the
C# logic. I really don't have any experience with XML. I have just never
really needed to use it. Although I have created a few web services, I never
'really' messed with the XML portion of it. I wouldn't even know where to
begin.

Sintwar, My problem is quite similar to yours. I m retrieving some data from
the C# file as i stored in a ArrayList as :

<script langauge="C#" runat="server">
struct str
        {
            public int phone;
            public string zip;
        }
void Page_Load( Object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    ArrayList arrTest = new ArrayList();
    str s=new str();
    s.zip="12345";
    arrTest.add(s)

    Flash.Result = arrTest;
}
</script>

In Flash,

res=result.

But it is not working,

Plz Help.
