flash data integration: I doesn`t know how to interface Flash with ASP inorder to retrieve data from
database.

I am not able to find any website which provides me atleast an introduction
level how to retrieve data from Microsoft Access using ASP.
I am in need to know the details ,since I am developing mobile application
with Flash Lite 2.0.
Can ,please somebody help me inorder to solve this problem.

The process is the same as with any web page to ASP and back. So you need to
learn ASP, SQL and probably ADO for the server side. And you select the
scripting language usually VBScript or JScript. All of which have nothing to
do with Flash.

Then for the Flash side you need to select either URL vars or XML as your
data structures. Depending on which data structure you use, then LoadVars
and XML Actionscript classes are applied respectively.

Flash is the UI and these classes are for the data communications between
Flash and the server script.

You might want to look at the sendAndLoad methods for these two classes:

Thank you very much for your guidance .
Now I have finished my demo for sample project in mobile
application in Flash Lite 2.0
But I have a problem when both Input text and Drop down box appear in same
screen.

The problem is that first i have kept my focus to input text and then i
brought the focus to drop down(ie movie clip) and then if again I want to bring
focus to input text it is not working (ie) the focus is not back to input text.

My Code to bring focus is

Selection.setFocus("input_txt"); ----to bring focus to input text.

Dropdown_mc.onSetFocus=function(oldFocus)----to bring focus to dropdown
{}
input_txt.onKillFocus = function(newFocus)---to bring focus back to input text.


Can u help me to solve this problem.

Thank u

I believe if you are using Flash UI components you need to use its
FocusManager class.
