I must admit, and apart from simple data types (see table at
http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flashremoting/mx2004/using_flash_remoting/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/wwhelp.htm),
I've converted all my result sets into structs or arrays of structs
before passing them back to Flash and then inserting the data in VOs
and I haven't had any real problems doing this. Using result sets look
complicated, but then I haven't really made the effort. Once AS3 is
out, passing XML back to Flash would probably be the easest for
complex VOs.
