It works one way - from the datasource to the text property.
I am comming to flex as a VB programmer and I was looking to create
a setup that was more like the traditional bound recordset type
system.
What I did instead was create my own datasource that has the concept
of selectedItem and all the other things I need. Then I had to
extend all the controls to add in binding inside the controls (so I
just set dataProvider="{mydatasource} dataPath="fieldIwant" on the
control.
took a little extra work and I had to learn more of the framework
that I anticipated (also had some help from some experts). But it is
working well now and I have to write about 1/2 the code I would have
the other way.
