    Hi, Rich

    Very good article. I have a Flex 2.01 application that uses extensively drag and drop and I want to translate it to AIR. Your article will be very important.

    The translation is going well except for the Dragmanager namespace that have different methods in AIR and Flex 2.01.

    Do you have any documentation so that I can find a way the migrate my Flex 2.01 to AIR without having to maintain two versions of drag and drop code.

    Thsnks

    Hi,Rich

    Greate article, I think it is very useful to the developer. Could I translate it into Chinese to let more people know it?

    Thanks very much.

    Hey Rich,

    Thanks for the great article. I liked how you showed some of the basic, yet crucial, functionality that can be expanded on. I wanted to bring following items to your attention:

    minor typo…Step 3 in “Integrate the SQLite database” section on page 6 should say weatherResultEventHandler() instead of weatherResultWeatherHandler().
    —-
    With beta 2, Looks like NativeMenu is no longer supported or working on Mac either? I did some research on the net and on Adobe site yet I couldn’t get the menus to be displayed and I don’t see anything wrong in the code. Can you validate that your menu code still works with Beta 2? Thanks.
    —-
    Readme.rtf file instructions about “File -> Import -> General” are no longer valid. It should be “File -> Import -> Other -> General… (probably related to beta 2 as well)

    Thanks!

    Thanks for the correction on Step 3.

    Yes, NativeMenu’s still work on Mac.

    Thanks for the update on the Import also. I always just right click on the nav window and choose import which skips the “Other” selection.
