Alex, thanks, but changing to your code suggestion, I still get an
error,
Main Thread (Suspended: ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property host not
found on MyTestApplication and there is no default value.)
and I think it is because EntryClass.main() gets called on the event
applicationComplete, so the id for the UICompoenent does not exist yet,
since it is further down the MXML. Chicken and egg thing, and not sure
how to fix?
