As a designer, I don’t get a lot of exposure to programming business applications in Flash but once in a while I need to struggle through it. Recently, I began using a product that has eliminated almost all of my fears. Its called Snapp MX (flash.snappmx.com).
The beauty of this product is that it generates most of the code I need to interface forms I create in Flash to my ColdFusion server. This even includes database queries which I have always struggled with. I read that it will also generate code in Java, C# and VB if your not into ColdFusion. One down side, however, is that you need to have a Flash Gateway running. This wasn’t a problem for me since it came with my ColdFusion server.
If your like me and you have to traverse this territory on occassion, you owe it to yourself to check out this product.
