Where are you trying to get at them? A script block inside mx:TextInput is in the context of the TextInput which is why no id is needed and 'this' is the TextInput.

I have an inline itemrenderer in a DataGridColumn thus: <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Column 2" dataField="col2"> <mx:itemRenderer> <mx:Component> <mx:TextInput> </mx:TextInput> </mx:Component> </mx:itemRenderer> </mx:DataGridColumn> How can I access the properties of the TextInput from ActionScript please? I tried giving the TextInput an id but Flex scolded me.
