Well, createChildren() is only one spot. I am a component dev so createChildren is a nice place to put event listeners that have to do with user interaction such as a change event. You know the control has to be created before that handler will be called.
There are quite a few books that come with flex. I don't know, I have been learning by creating things. ;-)

Ha, I don't think it would put you back any! :)
Peace, Mike
Well Thanks, of course, it works FINE now, with your suggestion.
Now here is the important question......
I feel like I know flex pretty well (not too difficult to figure out how all of the components
work...maybe a 9 on a 0 - 10 scale).
However, my actionscript knowledge seems to be a 1 MINUS!. I would have had NO idea to
look for the createChildren function. where the heck do I learn that info? would going to
MAXX help ?? any books you want to recomend? (wanna consult for $$$ ??? )
