If the data provider is set up as [Bindable] it will refresh whenever
the underlying data changes:
[Bindable]
var someColleciont:ICollection; // could be ArrayCollection among others
<mx:DataGrid dataProvider="{someCollection}" />
If you are pulling data from some source using RemoteObject,
HTTPService, or WebService you can set up a timer to repeatedly call
the data:
import flash.utils.Timer;
import flash.events.TimerEvent;
var myTimer:Timer = new Timer (120000, 0); //
2min*60sec/min*1000ms/sec = 120000ms, 0 = repeat forever
myTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, refreshData);
private function refreshData( event:TimerEvent ):void{
myRemoteObject.getNewDataNow(); // on result update your data grid
}
Once you are feeling really adventurous you can use FDS (LCDS?) or
BlazeDS and push the data from the server to your app.
have fun, and welcome aboard
