Hi all,
I am working on a project that see me using WebOrb to do bulk inserts and also checking before insert if the record exist already. This I have done. And what I did was:

Create the object, check if it exist and write it to the database (this is done on the load even of the ArrayCollection)

Since there is no way yo do this synchronously, what would you suggest?

The challenge I have is this. I want to display a progress bar for the insert but I cant. I dont knw when all the items are saved to the database to that I can return a message that says all items are saved. for example
for each(var selectedStudent:Object in _StudentsList)
{
//obj.toString();
for each(var subs:Object in _ClassSubjects)
{
// Save students against subject here
// but check first
SaveAssessment(subs.SubjectName, selectedStudent as Students,txtAssessType.text);



}
}

Hey there

I had a similar problem, the best solution for me to keep track of the progress was a counter in the save process

for (var i:int = 0; i{
SaveFunction();
}

I could keep track of the progress with the i variable, depending on where you want to keep track just put the variable on the first or the second for.
Note that the fact that the variable has been incremented does not mean that the record will be on you DataBase, you're only sure that the request has been made.
If you want to be sure the record is there use an AsyncToken with you save.

Let me know if it helps.

Cheers
