Yes, you define a static public var allowEdit:Boolean; in your item
renderer.
that variable will be a member of the class, rather then a member of a
specific instance.
Only a single copy of allowEdit exists, regardless of how many instances
of your renderer you have.
Thus, you can get/modify it's value by referring to it using the class name:
MyRendererName.allowEdit=true;
Note, MyRenderName is the class name, not a specific instance!
Once your user logs in, you can set the allowEedit value:
if (username=="pete") MyRendererName.allowEdit=true;
inside your renderer, you can refer to the allowEdit property just as if
it was a class member.

So are you saying I set up a:: Static Public var allowEdit:Boolian; ::
in here and how do I define it from the Datagrid, do I have to include
it and set an instance up of it, that doesn't sound right to me. - I'm
only a beginner any code hints would be great.
