[Bindable]public var headingData1:Object = new Object();

<mx:HTTPService id="srv" url="components.xml" resultFormat="object" result="getHeadings(event);"/>

private function getHeadings(evt:ResultEvent):void{
             //Alert.show(xmlData.toString());
             xmlData = evt.result;
             headingData1 = xmlData.root.CIT;
    }


 <CIT id="1" name="CIT" projectname="CSI" projectmonth="March" manager="KingKong" description="Hello Kong">

An observation: Why make instantiating headingData1 as an object? you're feeding it an XML, so it should be typed as an XML.

This may be your only actual problem: headingData1 = xmlData.root.CIT may need to be headingData1 = xmlData.root.CIT[0] (I have to do this often when working with XML, it has to do with how E4X works and seems to use XMLList even when there is only one node at that level. I've heard other explanations, but this one makes sense to me.)
