Problem using CFC as datasource

Question

Hi Hoping someone can help me with a pretty basic problem.
I am trying to use a cfc as the datasource for a combobox and
also for a tilelist but I have to say I think I am missing
something obvious.
The problem is that when using the code below for my combobox
it is only showing one result not the whole list that I am
expecting. I expect this is something to do with the way I am
setting up the cfc but any help would be appreciated.
Cheers
Peter
First the cfc:
cffunction name="getClans" access="remote"
returntype="struct">
<cfset var clans = "" />
<cfset var clansStruct = StructNew() />
<cfquery datasource="readyup" name="clans">
SELECT * FROM TabClans
</cfquery>
<cfloop query="clans">
<cfset temp = structnew()>
<cfset temp.clanid = clanid />
<cfset temp.ClanName = ClanName />
<cfset temp.ClanHomePage = ClanHomePage />
<cfset structappend(clansStruct, temp)>
</cfloop>
<cfreturn clansStruct>
</cffunction>
The code for the combo is as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
layout="absolute" creationComplete="myService.getClans()" >
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import mx.rpc.events.ResultEvent;
import mx.controls.Button;
import mx.controls.Alert;
public function handleStructResult(event:ResultEvent):void{
oResult=event.result as Object;
[Bindable]
public var oResult:Object;
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:RemoteObject id="myService" destination="ColdFusion"
source="readyup" showBusyCursor="true">
<mx:method name="getClans"
result="handleStructResult(event)"
fault="Alert.show(event.fault.message)"/>
</mx:RemoteObject>
<mx:ComboBox x="10" y="100" dataProvider="{oResult}"
labelField="oResult.CLANID"></mx:ComboBox>

This is how I would code what you are trying to do.
Remember: The FieldNames returned from your query are case
sensitive when you reference them in your labelfield of your
combobox.
<cffunction name="getClans" output="false" access="remote"
returntype="query">
<cfset var qRead="">
<cfquery name="qRead" datasource="readyup">
SELECT * FROM TabClans
</cfquery>
<cfreturn qRead>
</cffunction>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
layout="absolute"
creationComplete="creationComplete();">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import mx.collections.*;
import mx.controls.*;
import mx.rpc.events.*;
import mx.events.*;
private function creationComplete():void{
myService.getClans.send();
[Bindable]
private var arClans:ArrayCollection = null;
private function getClansReceived(event:ResultEvent):void {
arClans = new ArrayCollection();
arClans = event.result as ArrayCollection;
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:RemoteObject id="myService" destination="ColdFusion"
source="readyup" showBusyCursor="true">
<mx:method name="getClans"
result="getClansReceived(event)"
fault="Alert.show(event.fault.message)"/>
</mx:RemoteObject>
<mx:ComboBox x="10" y="100" dataProvider="{arClans}"
labelField="CLANID"></mx:ComboBox>
</mx:Application>
