I'm stuck and making a dunce appeal - this can't be as difficult as I'm making it:
I have a Data Grid and a Form. When an item is selected on the Data Grid, it displays the selected item on the Form for editing. I'm using <mx:Binding> so changes on the form are reflected in the grid. With straight text values, life is good - it works fine. One column in the grid is a Number (actually currency) and when I try to include that I get a type coercion error. (I'm saving this back to a database via Hibernate where the column is a number). I tried to use Number(txtInput.text) in the <mx:Binding> "destination" tag and it works, but I lose precision on the Number - it won't save decimals. It acts weird - when I type a decimal, it takes it, then backs it out if I type more numbers. I'm stuck on this conversion of the TextInput to a Number. Do you have to convert the <TextInput> to a Number via a function? Can someone clue me in? Thanks -joe
