Hi.
I am quite new in Flex and would like to ask a simple question.
I am retrieving datasets from a .NET webservice and binding the same to a
datagrid. The datagrid comes with a feature that when you click on any of the
headers, the column is sorted ASC or DESC.
Now, one column which I am binding to is originally a numeric column. But when
it binds to the datagrid, it's data type becomes string. Is it possible that
prior to binding the said column to the datagrid, I would be able to convert it
back to its numeric data taype? Since sorting the column in a string format
would give a different result as compared to sorting the same column in a
numeric format.
Thanks.
Regards.
