Cold Fusion/Flex Application Wizard crippled in TrialVersion?

[bryn50]

Hi,

I am using the 60 Day trial version of Flex Builder 3/Eclipse.
I wanted to try out the much vaunted Cold Fusion/Flex Application Wizard,
mainly because I could not get my head around access from Flex to an existing
CFC from the documentation alone.

So, I followed the directions:
Click the plus sign (+).
In the Name: text box, enter the name for the page.
Select the page type (master, detail, or master/detail).
Click Edit Master Form or Edit Detail Form, depending on the type of form you
are creating.
The Visual Query Builder starts.

But for me, when I click on 'Edit Master Form' the Visual Query Builder does
not start.

Now I have checked and confirmed that my RDS is working, and that I can access
the database via RDS in the Eclipse RDS browser window. The RDS concerned is
on another PC.

The PC on which Flex Builder is installed is a Vista Ultimate/32 and the
database is MS SQl server 2005 (running on the other PC). Cold Fusion 8 is
installed on both PC's.

So, my question is 'Is the CF/Flex Application wizard deliberately
hobbled/crippled in Flex 3 Trial version, or is there something wrong with my
installation.?
If this works for everyone else, then how do I debug my installation ?

Thanks,
Bryn Parrott

in addition, I can say that I installed the same flex builder trial on an XP
machine, using its own local RDS, and found that the wizard worked just fine.

So what is the variable here, why is the wizard not working on the vista PC ?
Is it Vista ?
Is it the fact that I'm trying to use RDS against a remote server and not the
local one ?
