I have now just realised that when I try to apply styles to the standard components e.g. Button with the syntax I am trying it doesn't work either so perhaps the problem doesn't lie with my component and lies with the way I am trying to apply the styles.
Shouldn't this work and change all instances of the Button component to have red text?
<mx:Style>
Button
{
color:#FF0000;
}
</mx:Style>
Thanks again...
