Typically, one uses labelFunction to pull role.application.code and display it, and provides a custom sortCompareFunction that pulls the same and sorts it.

I don't think the itemRenderers are affecting my ability to sort, but I think my lack of dataFields are. My dataobjects look like this: An Application object with a code. A Role object with an Application, code, and description A UserRole object with a Role, and comment. My datagrid contains an ArrayCollection of UserRole mappings. I want a column for the Role code, Role description and Application code. Since I can't set the dataFeld to "role.application.code" and the like, I've gone to custom renderers. thanks for your help, Steve --- In [email protected] <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> , "Alex Harui" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I suspect there might be an easier way, but I'm not sure I fully > understand what you are trying to accomplish. > > > > Let's start with the data objects: what do they look like? > > > > Then, what does the DG look like? > > > > Then we can talk about sorting. itemRenderers shouldn't affect your > ability to sort. > > >
