Hi David, I am glad that flexcoders is starting to work for you. I've been helped for other people in the list, and now that I know more about Flex, I am happy to help. See the example below, I think it does what you need. Note that I change the Label for a Text tag. I noticed that the Text tags displays <BR> and Label does not. Again, do not forget that you can only display basic HTML. I have seen the list of supported HTML tags someplace in the help.
