Sounds like you need to set the labelField property of your combo
box. For example, if the objects in your statesData array contain a
property called "name" with the values you want shown in the
control, you would use:
<mx:ComboBox dataProvider="{statesData}" labelField="name" />
If you aren't sure what the property with the label you want to show
up in the combobox is called, switch back to datagrid and see what's
in the appropriate column header - that'll be the value to use in
place of "name" in the above example.
