How are you updating the data provider items? If you are using the collection API, like setItemAt(), the necessary events will be dispatched and the DataGrid will visually update. If you are directly assigning propety values to individual items, then you will need to call itemUpdated(item).

Hi all. I have a wierd situation, hopefully someone here can help. I have a DataGrid's dataprovider bound to an myDP ArrayCollection (it is defined as [Bindable]). Each column in the DG has a labelFunction. When I set the myDP values for the first time, everything is sweet, the data is displayed correctly. When I update the myDP with new data, however, everything goes wrong. The labelFunctions still get the stale data (from before the update), and so the grid shows old data. I verified the new data is updated to the DG's dataProvider (added a listener to datagrid for CollectionEvent.COLLECTION_CHANGE - the new data is updated in the DG dataprovider - checked in event's currentTarget). I can't understand why the dataprovider is updated and still the labelFunction's item:Object contain old data... Any ideas anyone? Thanks, Sefi
