If you just want to run the code in the comboChanged function, you can
just change the default value for the evt parameter...
private function comboChanged(evt:Event = null) :void
and then call the function with no parameters in your myTextChanged
function...
private function myTextChanged(evt:Event)
{
// Code here
comboChanged();
}
or you could create a new event and dispatch it...
private function myTextChanged(evt:Event)
{
// Code here
this.dispatchEvent(new ListEvent(ListEvent.CHANGE));
}
