The repeater object lets you specify what to use as the data for each itemrenderer. It seems to me that it would be much simpler if all controls that use itemrenderers would allow this rather than forcing people to write special code. I don't think the help on itemrenderers says much on this subject, other than that objects to be used as itemrenderers should support the Data property. -Amy
