How to bind XML in Actionscript?

Question

I'm having difficulty working with binding in actionscript.  In MXML I can use the following line:
<mx:Label x="117" y="40" text=" {stationXML.getItemAt(Station-1).CDL0.@value}" id="lblTest"/>
However, in actionscript, I cannot seem to get the binding to work! I tried the following:
BindingUtils.bindProperty(lblTest,"text",stationXML.getItemAt(Station-1).CDL0,"value");
Any ideas how I can do this in Actionscript?  I need to do it in ActionScript becuase the "CDL0" value will need to be replaced at times with "CDL1", "CDL2", etc...

I solved the issue, so if anyone else has the same problem, here's what I did (after much aggravation):
The reason I didnt use MXML binding was because I wanted to be able to change it from "CDL0" to "CDL1" to "CDL3" without manually changing bindings.
What I set in MXML for the text was:
{stationXML.getItemAt(Station-1).child(cdlstr).@value}
where 'cdlstr' was a public string declared (and set) elsewhere in the program.
So I could make 'cdlstr' = "CDL0" or "CDL1" or even "CDL" + i (if I wanted to make life easy).  Just needed to remember to make 'cdlstr' a bindable variable or else it all falls apart.
Hope it helps someone else.
