see if this does anything, for some reason the drawHeaderBackground function doesnt really override anything. it is just stranded out there, the one you need to override is the one in the DataGridHeader but i have no clue how you would get there headerBackgroundSkin="mx.skins.ProgrammaticSkin"/>

I tried eveything what I can think of such as setting the alpha value of AdvancedDataGrid' s headerInfo.headerIt em to 0, overriding AdvancedDataGrid' s drawHeaderBackgroun d function, but no luck...I couldn't make it. Does anyone out there know how to make AdvancedDataGrid' s header transparent ? Thanks in advance. -Wolfgang. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Looking for last minute shopping deals? Find them fast with Yahoo!
