Well you use My_order.load("company_name.xml");
but your xml file is named "company_name.txt"...

Quite an easy error

sorry for delayed reply McUsher but i couldn't upload the xml file i have attached it as txt file as u can see in the previous code!

i could do this way

My_order.onLoad = function(success) {
if (success) {
comp_brandArray = My_order.firstChild.childNodes;
for (var i = 0; i<comp_brandArray.length; i++) {
company.addItem({label:comp_brandArray[i].firstChild.attributes.name, data:i});
}
} else {
import mx.controls.Alert;
Alert.show("Unable to connect to server. Pls try after some time.........", "Error");
}
};

some other solution here i am skippin some of the data any help!

Oh, i think you should only change one thing:
My_order.onLoad = function(success) {
if (success) {
comp_brandArray = this.firstChild.childNodes;
