hi,
Not sure this is the right place to ask this, but as this forum as been great
help, I thought I would try.
I'm about to start a new project, very simple data processing app, present
form, collect data and mine out to administrators.

The twist is that the table fields are dynamic and administrator can add any
type of field they want to capture data.

I have done this in the past, once the data is added, the admin can layout the
forms in HTML, and add tags that represent the DB fields. These HTML files are
used as templates and we simply swap the tags out in PHP with the database info
as we display the forms to the user.

I need to do the same thing in flex. I need to be able to allow an admin to
layout the form data anyway they wish and then save that out and use that in a
flex form.

My thoughts are a drag and drop GUI on a canvas. A simple list on the side
shows the DB fields as flex components. Text input if text field, numeric
stepper, checkbox etc. Then a master list of label fields and lines etc. The DB
list assets can only be drag once on to the canvas and the master items such as
labels and lines drag as many times as needed to make look and feel.

Then save out the whole canvas as an xml template. Then when the form is
needed, parse XML and dynamically create the form objects and layout based on
the XML.

So my question, anyone ever done this or seen anything like this and can point
me to a sample.

Thanks in advance.
