Hi Roman, Um. I didn't know you can put creationComplete on a textBox. I'll give it a try. I'm like a fish out of water with all this flex mumbo jumbo.

I'm slightly sick from WebDU. Let me try again. In HTML you can call a function when the page loads. OnLoad() if I remember correctly. What i want to do is call a function in Flex and have it automatically call and calculate all the fields within this function i.e . CostCalc(). At the moment when I change a <mx:TextInput> I have an change attribute which calls the costCalc() i.e. <mx:TextInput change="CostCalc()"> It goes out and recalculates all the fields again. SO here lies my issue. How do I call that function and make it like someone has changed a value in the TextInput box? Does that make more sense? Worse case scenario is I'll just populate the fields with the correct data rather then trying to calculate it. I just wanted to know if it can be done like in Javascript/HTML. Thanks in advanced!

Returns them, sets them to some Label as text, what? It's very hard to get what is going on and thus what might be wrong. R.

The function CostCalc() is just doing basic math calculation. i.e. a + b does that help at all.

The flex application that I'm building is really quite simple which is good cause I'm learning flex. However that said.. in html we have onLoad() which we put on a page. I have built a function called CostCalc() everytime someone changes a field it will recalculate each field. I got that working perfectly. However, when I first load the page up with values every value in the form is 0.00 until I make a change to a field. I know that in flex we have creationComplete= "onCreationCompl ete(event) ; " but when I put in the function call CostCalc() it doesn't seem to work. Below is the code. Disregard the RequestType stuff. I'm switching states based on the URL. //Alert.show( RequestType) ; if (RequestType == "1") { EndValue(); CostCalc() } else { LandedCosts( ); CostCalc() } } Send instant messages to your online friends http://au.messenger.yahoo.com Send instant messages to your online friends http://au.messenger .yahoo.com Send instant messages to your online friends http://au.messenger.yahoo.com Send instant messages to your online friends http://au.messenger.yahoo.com <!-- #ygrp-mlmsg {font-size:13px;font-family:arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif;} #ygrp-mlmsg table {font-size:inherit;font:100%;} #ygrp-mlmsg select, input, textarea {font:99% arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif;} #ygrp-mlmsg pre, code {font:115% monospace;} #ygrp-mlmsg * {line-height:1.22em;} #ygrp-text{ font-family:Georgia; } #ygrp-text p{ margin:0 0 1em 0;} #ygrp-tpmsgs{ font-family:Arial; clear:both;} #ygrp-vitnav{ padding-top:10px;font-family:Verdana;font-size:77%;margin:0;} #ygrp-vitnav a{ padding:0 1px;} #ygrp-actbar{ clear:both;margin:25px 0;white-space:nowrap;color:#666;text-align:right;} #ygrp-actbar .left{ float:left;white-space:nowrap;} .bld{font-weight:bold;} #ygrp-grft{ font-family:Verdana;font-size:77%;padding:15px 0;} #ygrp-ft{ font-family:verdana;font-size:77%;border-top:1px solid #666; padding:5px 0; } #ygrp-mlmsg #logo{ padding-bottom:10px;} #ygrp-vital{ background-color:#e0ecee;margin-bottom:20px;padding:2px 0 8px 8px;} #ygrp-vital #vithd{ font-size:77%;font-family:Verdana;font-weight:bold;color:#333;text-transform:uppercase;} #ygrp-vital ul{ padding:0;margin:2px 0;} #ygrp-vital ul li{ list-style-type:none;clear:both;border:1px solid #e0ecee; } #ygrp-vital ul li .ct{ font-weight:bold;color:#ff7900;float:right;width:2em;text-align:right;padding-right:.5em;} #ygrp-vital ul li .cat{ font-weight:bold;} #ygrp-vital a { text-decoration:none;} #ygrp-vital a:hover{ text-decoration:underline;} #ygrp-sponsor #hd{ color:#999;font-size:77%;} #ygrp-sponsor #ov{ padding:6px 13px;background-color:#e0ecee;margin-bottom:20px;} #ygrp-sponsor #ov ul{ padding:0 0 0 8px;margin:0;} #ygrp-sponsor #ov li{ list-style-type:square;padding:6px 0;font-size:77%;} #ygrp-sponsor #ov li a{ text-decoration:none;font-size:130%;} #ygrp-sponsor #nc { background-color:#eee;margin-bottom:20px;padding:0 8px;} #ygrp-sponsor .ad{ padding:8px 0;} #ygrp-sponsor .ad #hd1{ font-family:Arial;font-weight:bold;color:#628c2a;font-size:100%;line-height:122%;} #ygrp-sponsor .ad a{ text-decoration:none;} #ygrp-sponsor .ad a:hover{ text-decoration:underline;} #ygrp-sponsor .ad p{ margin:0;} o {font-size:0;} .MsoNormal { margin:0 0 0 0;} #ygrp-text tt{ font-size:120%;} blockquote{margin:0 0 0 4px;} .replbq {margin:4;} --> Send instant messages to your online friends http://au.messenger.yahoo.com
