To expand on Deepa's suggestion, you can easily filter an arrayCollection that is used as a dataProvider with the following code. Call the filterGrid() function from the comboBox change event.
- TH
public function filterGrid():void
{
gridDataProvider.filterFunction=statusFilter;
gridDataProvider.refresh();
}
public function statusFilter(item:Object):Boolean
{
return item.status == cboStatusFilter.selectedItem;
}
// status is the name of the array element (field) to be filtered
