Our tree has 15,000+ nodes and we were having issues with too many loops. I think that might work depending on the size of your resultset.

In this way you can save the Governor limits since there are no webservice calls here. Another technique is having FLex-Javascript-Apex-Force.com integration.

We've done it both ways in the past. We've created a separate custom object for each level of the hierarchy and then created a single custom object to maintain all levels in the hierarchy. We just have a circular reference to itself to maintain the parent-child relationship. Since you are limited to the number of custom objects, this may be a better approach. If you want to include the control in an edit page, you'd have to have a callback from the Flex app to the Visualforce page. You can find an example of this at: http://blog.jeffdouglas.com/2008/12/09/flex-callback-example-with-visualforce/. Good luck! Nir, that is a great question. We’ve done it both ways in the past.

Forgive me if questions i have seem dumb but i only just taken a quick look at force.com: 1) I see you are using Cat1__c,Cat2__c,Cat3__c... I've seen this on other place in force.com. I this the recommended way to do hierarchy or just an example you have? 2) how/can you use this flexy thingy as a field in the edit. I want to create an object with a field to select a category and i could really find out how to do this. Again, sorry if this seems obvious. Hey, nice idea.
