That works great for components, but doesnt seem to work for datagrid columns. In that situation when I set the column width to nothing the column got bigger than when it was set manually. Ideally I would like to be able to make the column the width of the header text for the column.

Hank,I have a variety of situations where I want a box to be just big enough to hold its contents, and to just resize other stuff to accomodate. One of the most important reasons for this is localization. I want to support lots of languages and I dont want to have to hard code widths to get things to look the way I want. This is also true for datagrid, where I would like certain columns to be exactly what they need to be to accomodate the headertext length and other to just grow or shrink to use the remaining available space.
Set width to NaN (if using ActionScript) or remove the width attribute (if in MXML view).
Cheers,
Steve
