> Affected OS(s): All OS Platforms

> Steps to reproduce:
> Create an advanced datagrid with custom columnRenderer and Custom header 
> renderer.
> (In my application, i have to recreate the columns in the datagrid every time 
> i fetch data from backend.)
>  Actual Results:
> During this process we get a null pointer exception.
> TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object 
> reference.

> When i build my application with SDK 3.5, this bug does not exist. But with 
> SDK 4.1, this is consistently reproducible.
> More detailed inspection into the AdvancedDataGrid source code shows the 
> following insights.
> In the method 
> mx.controls.advancedDataGridClasses.AdvancedDataGridSortItemRenderer.getFieldSortInfo(),
>  error happens in the following line:
>    return grid.getFieldSortInfo(grid.columns[listData.columnIndex]);
> Here grid.columns[listData.columnIndex] returns null. In short, 
> listData.columnIndex has value higher than the actual number of columns (not 
> supposed to happen)
> Work Around / Proposed Solution
> -------------------------------
> If we can put a null check around grid.columns[listData.columnIndex], this 
> issue will get fixed.
> Can we get this fixed as soon as possible.
