I would just subclass Label, override the getter/setter
for dataObject, and then when dataObject is set use your formatter to update
the text.
Sorry, don’t have example code right
now.
I’m also going to file a bug to make
sure that our dataObject and related getter/setters are always bindable.

Think i replyed to the wrong
addy since it hasn't shown up in the
list.
Is there some code somewhere I can look at that
specificaly is
redering the date. I have messed around and
can get a datefield box
to show, but I don't need to have it edit, I just
need to display the
date mm/dd/yyyy. I have also written my own
mxml and still nogo.
