thanks but it hasn't done what i want (thanks anyway).
However, I have managed to get success by doing the following code
in creationComplete of the defined component.
<mx:Component id="myCombo">
<mx:ComboBox labelField="Text" initialize="startUP()"
creationComplete="doThis()">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
public var dp2:Array = [{Text:'one', Code:'1'}, {Text:'two',
Code:'2'}, {Text:'three', Code:'3'}, {Text:'four', Code:'4'},
{Text:'five', Code:'5'}];
private function startUP():void
{
//set the dataprovider
this.dataProvider = dp2;
}
private function doThis():void
{
var myListData:DataGridListData = DataGridListData(listData);
for(var i:int=0;i<this.dataProvider.length;i++)
{
if(this.dataProvider[i].Text == data[myListData.dataField])
{
index = i;
break;
}
}
this.selectedIndex = (index == -1) ? 0 : index;
}
]]>
</mx:Script>
</mx:ComboBox>
</mx:Component>
