Drag Drop List to List

Question

I have a source list and a destination list. I want to submit
the contents of the destination list via my sendformdata function
along with the other formitems.
Here are my source/dest lists.
<mx:VBox dropShadowEnabled="true">
<mx:Label text="Available Loops"/>
<mx:List id="srclist" width="300" height="150"
allowMultipleSelection="true"
dragEnabled="true" dropEnabled="true"
dragMoveEnabled="true" labelField="category"
dataTipFunction="myLabelFunc" showDataTips="true"
alternatingItemColors="[#ece8ff, #ffffff]">
</mx:List>
</mx:VBox>
<mx:VBox>
<mx:Label text="Patched Loops"/>
<mx:List alternatingItemColors="[#ece8ff, #ffffff]"
id="destlist" width="200" height="150"
allowMultipleSelection="true"
dragEnabled="true" dropEnabled="true" dragMoveEnabled="true"
labelField="category"/>
</mx:VBox>
user drags one or more items from the source to dest list.
This works great.
Now I need to pass the dropped/selected data in destlist to
myobj, along with the other form items. How?
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
private function sendFormdata():void {
var myobj:Object = new Object();
myobj.name = myname.text;
myobj.email = myemail.text;
myobj.entry = myentry.text;
myobj.entrycomment = myentrycomment.htmlText;
myobj.selectedcats= destlist.????
cfdataInsert.addData({user:myobj})
]]>
</mx:Script>
Second part of my question is that I want the value of
myobj.selectedloops to be a comma separated list of categoryid
numbers (e.g. 1,3,5). My query, that populates the source list via
the remoteobject contains categoryid,category, and description
columns. I currently display the category in the labelField of the
list, but I need to submit the categoryid to the DB.
data comes from...
<mx:RemoteObject
id="cfdata" showBusyCursor="true"
destination="ColdFusion"
source="da8.Constellation.entries">
<mx:method name="getCats" result="getCats_result(event)"
/>
</mx:RemoteObject>
getCats ColdFusion function...
<cffunction name="getCats" access="remote"
returntype="query">
<cfset var CatData = "">
<cfquery name="CatData" datasource="#DSN#">
select categoryid,category,description
from Categories
order by category
</cfquery>
<cfreturn CatData />
</cffunction>
and then this function populates the srclist with the
data....
public function getCats_result(event:ResultEvent):void
srclist.dataProvider = event.result as ArrayCollection;
destlist.dataProvider =[];
How do I pass the resulting destlist categoryids to
myobj.selectedcats ?
I don't know how the ArrayCollection organizes the query and
how to reference the categoryid in the srclist and destlists.
I'd appreciate any help.
Thanks,
Don
