Beginner Question: Query in Flash 8/SWF

Hey Everyone,

I am very new to Flash but I was also once new at VB .NET and through this site I because somewhat good at it so I'm trying this with Flash. Note that I have VB/.NET knowledge but very little Flash knowledge.

Here is what I want to do. I want to create a simple SWF using Flash 8 that will perform a simple query (select * from names (nolock)) from a SQL 2000/2005 back end and put the results in the Flash movie. Assume that the DB will be "local" and would have full rights to the DB. I guess you can also assume that I would have some kind of text box or label on the page/movie (sorry, I know I am using .NET terminology).

Anyone have a simple code snipit I can look at for this?

Chris, Baltimore

Actually, I want it to run in an Adobe Connect Flash Session so it's running on a back-end server. I've already been able to create simple SWF files (like the rotating words, things like that) and it works. Now I want to see if I can actually provide something interactively.
