What Alex is referring to is here: http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/skinstyle_3.html This works ok for styles that you can set without needing to have a class reference, but it falls down when you're using an actual skin, which needs a class. I couldn't find a way to do what you're looking to do without either baking in a reference to the skin class into the component or just knowing that you've got to provide that class in a CSS style declaration. The way the Flex components get away with not baking in a reference is through the defaults.css file that comes with Flex. You may find that providing your own defaults.css file will do what you want, but I don't know that it saves you anything, since I think the class still gets compiled into your swc http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/ascomponents_8.html. Maybe someone with more experience than me can tell you what advantage you can get by doing this. HTH; Amy
