Might be better to use a datagrid and specify the columns.

Subject: [AFFUG Discuss] Binding to a non-displayed combo-box column

I've got a combo box that is populated by a RemoteObject that returns two
additional columns, name and address, and shows the building number. I need
to display the other two columns in labels or text fields so the user knows
they selected the correct building. They don't want to see all three in the
combo box - I already tried that and they didn't go for it.

I can't figure out the syntax to get the label text to populate when the
combo box changes. Here's what I have so far:

CFC:
<cffunction name="FACILITY_NUMBERLookup" access="remote" output="false"
returntype="query">
  <cfset var qLookup="">
        <cfquery name="qLookup" datasource="gte911_mdevl">
SELECT    FAC_NUMBER, ABBR_NAME, ADDRESS
FROM      GT_FACILITY 
WHERE     (STATUS = 'A')
UNION
SELECT    ' ', ' ', ' '
FROM      dual
ORDER BY FAC_NUMBER
        </cfquery>
  <cfreturn qLookup>
</cffunction>

REMOTE OBJECT:
<mx:RemoteObject
  id="referenceManager"
  showBusyCursor="true"
  destination="ColdFusion"
 
source="gte911.components.cfgenerated.msag.MASTER_STREET_ADDRESS_TBLResource
s">
  <mx:method name="FACILITY_NUMBERLookup"
result="MASTER_STREET_ADDRESS_TBL_FACILITY_NUMBERLookup_result(event)"
    fault="server_fault(event)" />
</mx:RemoteObject>

COMBO_BOX:
<cfComponents:BindableComboBox
  id="MASTER_STREET_ADDRESS_TBL_FACILITY_NUMBER"
  selectedItem="{this.detailObject.FACILITY_NUMBER}"
  valueField="FAC_NUMBER"
  labelFields="[FAC_NUMBER]"
  width="100%"
/>

*** Here I'm just displaying the selectedIndex as a bit of a sanity check
*** <mx:Label width="100%" id="FACILITY_NAME" 
  text="{this.MASTER_STREET_ADDRESS_TBL_FACILITY_NUMBER.selectedIndex}" />
