Assuming there is a column with dataField="id", the arrow should move. If you can fit the rest of the test case on a few screens of code, I can try it out and see

Thanks for the fast reply. This is the code that is executed whenever the user presses the add user button: private function addUser():void { //Re-sort on the id field var reSort:Sort = new Sort(); reSort.fields = [new SortField("id")]; this.userList.sort = reSort; this.userList.refresh(); this.userList.addItem(new SVNUser(userList.length)); var editPosition:Object = new Object(); editPosition.columnIndex = 0; editPosition.rowIndex = userList.length - 1; this.userGrid.editedItemPosition = editPosition; } As you can see, I set the ArrayCollection's sort to the id column, add a new item to it and then focus the user input to the added line in the DataGrid. This works fine as the selected item on the grid is always the one that was added (if I did't reset the sort to the id field, the line would be inserted in a different position according to the active sort). The problem is that the grid still displays the arrow on the column by which it was being sorted. Again, thanks.
