That is exactly what you need to do. Create a "for" loop and get a handle on each object in the loop.
Then, set up a method that returns a Boolean if it needs to be flagged. This method will check the dates. if true, then inside your For loop, flag the data object. Note: You can do the conditionals inside the for loop, it's just better for readability to extract that logic out to another method within the same class. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "Mark" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I'm at a bit of a loss right now how to do something.
