Getting at your SQL Database using Flex and .NET Web Services

So you gave up on trying to figure out how you can directly connect Flex to your database like with any server side language and decided to Google the answer. Well by now you probably figured out that your building a “client” application not a server side application.
So whats the best approach in achieving what you want? I have no clue, I do however have a solution that I put together using ASP.NET C#, Web Service, some duck tape and lot of Tylenol which makes getting at and querying your data just as easy as using SQL Manager which is actually a hell of a lot easier than querying your data with any server side code.
