[flexcoders] setting a property on a textfield not initialy shown yet

[John Grden]

I have a textfield I want to set the text to, but it's in a viewStack index that doesn't show until I change the index or click on the buttons.  After going to the textfield one time, setting the text is fine.  But it's the first time ;)
Based on user action, I want to force the viewStack to change (that I can do no problemo), and set the text on the next line.  What do I need to do to initialize() that sucker so I can do this?  wHen I trace it out, it's null and initialize() isn't even a method I can call.
any ideas on what to do?Tanks!-- John Grden - Blitz
