spotted a few problem with your example.
1) not sure if your event.columnIndex == 1 is correct.
2) backgroundColor is a style not a property, so you cant set it
like that in your itemEditBegin handler.
if all your trying to do is change the backgroundColor of the
itemEditorInstance, then do it in the itemFocusIn handler
public function itemFocusInHandler():void {
textinput:TextInput = dg.itemEditorInstance as TextInput;
textinput.setStyle("backgroundColor", "red");
}
