Just make sure int he constructor you initialize it::
EventDispatcher.initialize(this)..
also you ned to have these var definititions:
public var addEventListener:Function
public var removeEventListener:Function;
private var dispatchEvent:Function
then to dispatch:
dispatchEvent( { type:'whatever', target:this,
someOtherProp:'somothervalue' } )
all those props in the dispatchEvent call are just properties in a
basic Object. you must have type though.

This may be a "duh" question, but when you use dispatchEvent in a

created component, can I use my own event name or do i have to use
one of

component (the built in ones dont have the flexibility we need) and
would
like to add a 'QuestionCompleted' event. Is this possible?
