Try these modified functions:
private function giveTextFocus(){
myText.setFocus();
doLater(this, "setTheSel");
}
private function setTheSel()
{
Selection.setSelection(myText.text.length, myText.text.length);
}

Unfortunately, that
doesn't seem to be doing anything. I have the code I'm using to try and
test this below. In the test, I am just trying to give focus to the field
not changed and de-select the text within it.
<?xml
version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
private
function
giveFocus(){
combo.setFocus();
Selection.setFocus(combo.text.length,
combo.text.length);
combo.open();
}
private
function
giveTextFocus(){
myText.setFocus();
Selection.setFocus(myText.text.length,
myText.text.length);
}
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:Array
id="dp">
<mx:String>Brother</mx:String>
<mx:String>Mom</mx:String>
<mx:String>Dad</mx:String>
<mx:String>Sister</mx:String>
<mx:String>Uncle</mx:String>
</mx:Array>
<mx:Canvas>
<mx:ComboBox
editable="true" y="25" id="combo" change="giveTextFocus()" text="{myText.text}"
width="200" dataProvider="{dp}" selectedIndex="0"
/>
<mx:TextInput id="myText" text="{combo.text}"
change="giveFocus()"
width="200"/>
</mx:Canvas>
</mx:Application>

Subject: [flexcoders] Unselecting text in a field using
AS
If I use actionScript to send focus to a textInput
or editable comboBox Flex automatically selects the contents in that
field. Is there a way I can unselect the text? I've tried
resetting the value of the text property, but it doesn't unselect the
contents. What I'd like to do is unselect the contents and move the
cursor to the end of the text in the field.
Thanks in advanced,
Greg
