yes it is out of scope. a way round this (may not be totally
desirable) as follows
<mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Type" dataField="col3">
<mx:itemRenderer>
<mx:Component>
<mx:ComboBox creationComplete="doThis()">
<mx:Script><![CDATA[
private function doThis():void
{
// need to go up the owner/parent chain until
// you get access to colEvalType and set this.dataProvider
}
]]></mx:Script>
</mx:ComboBox>
</mx:Component>
</mx:itemRenderer>
</mx:DataGridColumn>
