Let's try this without the typo's.
Cool, I knew that you would get it. :) For something like this, you
can also bypass the change event (if you just need a value) by
binding directly:
<mx:TextArea id="forChange"
width="150"
height="100%"
text="{ ProcessorName.selectedItem.ProcessorID }"/>
or, whatever field you want.
Cheers,
