Hi Oleg, Use the columnNames property before setting your dataprovider:
// only show column1 and column2 datagrid.columnNames = ["column1", "column2"] datagrid.dataProvider = myDP; datagrid.columns[0].headerText = "Olegs Column" Datagrid columnName: http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flash/8/main/00003271.html Datagrid strategies: http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flash/8/main/00003253.html -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Oleg Filipchuk Sent: Wednesday, February 22, 2006 8:32 AM To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] DataGrid Columns question Thanks all, I've found solution by setting up columns ahead of time: private function createColumn( prop:String, label:String ):DataGridColumn { var clmn:DataGridColumn = new DataGridColumn(prop); clmn.headerText = label; return clmn; } dataGrid.addColumn(createColumn("nickname", "NickName")); dataGrid.addColumn(createColumn("fullname", "Full name")); dataGrid.addColumn(createColumn("tel", "Telephone")); dataGrid.addColumn(createColumn("address", "Address")); and after that I can asign data provider safely. But there is the nasty quirk - if I call dataGrid.spaceColumnsEqually() - dataGrid shows no column at all, so I have to set up width of every column individually. Thanks all for help, Oleg _______________________________________________ [email protected] To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com _______________________________________________ [email protected] To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
