Saving XML to Memory ONLY

[Merkaba]

I made an XML RS from MSSQL and i have to keep it in memory, but load it into Flash MX, without using RS.Save and loading the saved file. My client insists that the file NOT be saved physically, but only to memory. Is there a way to save it to memory and call it from a different .ASP page, i.e. an ADODB.Stream??


Thanks,

Bob

Store it as a session variable?

Well, the problem is, I have to then load the XML from memory/cache to a Flash MX Document to dynamically create a chart. I don't think it's possible so this was only a "hoping for an answer" question. Thanks, though, Jon.

Why is it not possible? Where's the problem?

ps instead of Flash, why not use SVG!

I know this sounds lame, but this is an internal project, and my boss (the quasi-client) wants us to use Flash so we know it for real-client projects. Flash (I think) is gonna want a physical file to read, but my boss doesn't want it stored on the server or client PCs. He is just making my life hard by this, but I said I'd see if it was possible, and found nothing to help on the internet. Usually, someone on here will know what to do. So, my situation:

- I HAVE to use Flash
- The XML File cannot be written
- Flash has to be able to read from memory

I'm gonna post this in the Flash Forum, which I thought I already did, but apparently not.

You need to read up on XML sockets in flash.

Tell your boss to use SVG. It is sweet.
