Hi Ian, Which flash version are you using? I had other problems yesterday with extending CollectionImpl due to my flash version (mx 2004), which worked just fine in flash 8. Might be the same in this case.
Are you using 7 or 8? Thanks!

But I don't think Hans was doing that. There's no problem with typing: interface IWorldPart {} class SomeWorldPartSubclass implements IWorldPart {} var myPart:IWorldPart = new SomeWorldPartSubclass(); /* Note INTERFACE-typed var, not concrete */ myCollection.addItem(myPart); Works fine for me on a quick test. A sanity check of trace(myPart instanceof Object); //traces true shows that you should be able to use the myPart variable everywhere that an Object is expected.
