[COLOR=#333333][FONT=Verdana]Dear friends,

My second question on this forum and i really need your help. I am integrating flash with php and using the php to download some data from a sql server into the flash. Everything works fine except that the data that is stored as an integer in SQL does not load into flash as an integer. I fail to understand why. I tried to type cast it into a number and it still does not work. Anyone has any ideas on this.

Thanks for any help from anyone.  
Regards
