flash data integration: I have a client who wants to display a list of names in flash, which should
come from a DB, can be any DB, and when a user clicks any name, it should open
a page having the details of that person. Please tell me how exactly can the
prob be solved, as Iam a Designer by profession but do take interest in flash
action script, but not expert. Will be thankful to all of u, let me know the
best solution! Thx a lot!!

The way I would approach it for you is to create an XML file that lists all
of the details of a user. In Flash, create a DataGrid or List that displays
just the full name. When a user clicks on the name, you can have the
additional attributes for the XML appear in a series of Labels (they are
data bound).

Look at the XML data binding tutorials in Flash MX 2004. They cover this
really well.
