You can do either what Graham said or what Douglas said to get the item in the Combobox.
>From there you basically have the same choice again, are you sending a new call out to the server to return a filtered record set or do you want to filter a local recordset? If the ComboBox triggers retrieval of a new filtered recordset, then you don't need to bother with the stuff in the link you posted. If you want to filter the full recordset locally then yes the best way to do it is with an ICollectionView and a filterFunction. The size of the recordset and how you are using it elsewhere will determine the best approach. -----Original Message----- From: Phill B [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, October 22, 2007 9:35 AM To: Flex Subject: one last combobox question Thanks to everyones help, I have zipped right along with my first Flex app. Now I'm tying to do one last thing to my comboBoxes and I'm not sure how to go about it. I have a remoteObject call that returns all the states in the database that is used as the combobox dataprovider. I need to add the label All States with a value of "all" as the first value to select. I found this link http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/155 But I'm not sure if this is taking me in the right direction. Any thoughts?
