Bruce, is the problem that you haven't been able to figure out how to do this, that you don't think you should have to figure it out, that you're not clear on how to subclass, or something else? In general, the Flex framework team has been surprised at the resistance many developers have to subclassing and we'd like to understand it better. After all, we can't provide every feature that developers need without bloating our components, and we've assumed that subclassing will be a commonly used technique. By the way, when you say "for each cell" do you mean that each cell needs to render differently based on the data it displays? Or every row might be different, but each column in a row is the same? Or that each column is different, but every row in a column is the same? - Gordon

We are looking at this kind of enhancement for the next Flex release :-) But if folks want to create a subclass to share in the meantime that might be a good little project.

Am I the only poor slob out here who does NOT want to sub-class a datagrid to be able to control for each cell the: * Background color * Font Color * Font Size * Font Weight Is it possible that Adobe (or someone who I would be happy to pay $$$ to) will come out with a datagrid with an option similar to the labelFunction that has these 4 fields passed to it so I can easily and programmatically set any of these parameters? Maybe its because I am coming from Delphi which has a few different grids that offer these features that I not satisfied with the current offerings. Please let me know if there are other BUSINESS developers who feel the same way. (if not, I will assume that I am more unique than my wife lets on!) However, I warn you, I do not handle disappointment very well! Bruce
