How to read data in Adobe Flash and align it to look like it's column?

I am doing an application that already exists, but I add a few improvements. I'll explain what this app is. There is a server and client side. The client side adds data to the Access database (the columns are time, name and surname). On the other computer is an application that displays this data (I don't know if he reads a database or another type of file, but I did a database). I know that server-side plays an .swf Flash file. This screen stays for about 30 seconds and then the application plays videos in the video player installed (ads, this model is connected to a TV) for some time and then the screen goes back to the display of the data.

I'm 18 and I have very limited knowledge of Adobe Flash (I learned something at school). I've done completely client-side app. I now how to create server-side. My main problems are: how to connect to Adobe Flash to the database (is it possible to transfer this data to any other file that can be connected to the Flash?), how to read data from database for Flash and how to display it. I don't want to display the data in the grid. In the application that already exists, each word is like a new text (tool in Flash) and it is aligned. Is it possible to add a loop that creates new texts and plays database cell? How to refresh the Flash screen?

I know it's a very complex issue, but your help would be very appreciated. I did on the client side in Delphi. If you need more information or if you do not understand something of my explanation, don't bother to ask. Thank you!

You can transfer data back and forth between Flash and database on a server with PHP as the intermediary.  If you are looking for Gioogle use terms like 'AS # PHP MySQL tutorial' (fillin 2 or 3 for the ' # '), you should be able to find something to help you along there.

What about adding new textfields and harmonizing, it depends on what version of as you use.  In AS3, you use just...

var tField = new TextField();

tField.x = a value to match.

addChild (tField)

As far as refreshing goes, this would require removing all Textfields you added and re-create new ones like you did the first time.  Yet once, it depends AS version that you use.  In AS3, you can use removeChild()
