Hi Rohit, Thanks for the reply. But i think your approach won't solve the problem because if u specify the sortfield as the MonthName then it would obviously sort it alphabetically and then we are back to the above stated problem. I want that flex should not sort the data from my XML file alphabetically.Rather it should maintain the same order as in the original XML file which is : Jan-Feb-Mar....
Thanks, Shishir.
