It's your call, really (personal preference and/or requirement of the application). @shix - You can read the XML file into your application through the file system, or you can do it via Web Services.

Once you have that, you can replace it with your own, as long as the MXML knows what you're talking about in your custom drill down file.

There's a FileReference but it requires the runtime to be AIR. any other way? hi,

So what I am looking to acomplush is for example you have the first xml file creates the monthly sales, and the second xml file would bring in the values for each day. Not really sure how to tackle that one. thanks for any advice!! Hi bradley,

I am not defining anything as far as columns/series, that is all read and created dynamically from the XML files.

If you've downloaded the dashboard from Adobe (or wherever you found it), then you will have the assemblies. One is for drilldown and one is for drillup. You shouldn't need to do anything to those files though (I didn't, anyway). The only file that I really modified pretty heavily was PieChartContent.mxml, which is in /src/com/esria/samples/dashboard/view. In that page, I have all of the logic for creating and reading the XML into Flex 3 variables, then putting those variables to use within the application and allowing for the drilldown of the specific data points. Let me know where you are having problems, and I'll do my best to address your issues. Brad Hey guys, sorry for not answering sooner, I’ve been busy at work.
