You'll be able to get the selectedItem for the ComboBox, but you'll lose context and won't know which row in the datagrid you're acting on... which I would think would be important. As Scott mentioned, tie your processing to the itemEditEnd event of the DataGrid itself. This way, you're in the proper context (you know which row you're actually editing), and you can get access to the ComboBox via the event.currentTarget.itemEditorInstance property, and act on the selectedIndex, selectedItem, selectedLabel, etc *that* way. --- In [email protected] <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> , "Tracy Spratt" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > event.target (or currentTarget) returns a reference to the ComboBox, so > you should be able to access any public members, like selectedIndex, > selectedItem, selectedLabel... > > > > Tracy > > > > ________________________________ > > From: [email protected] <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> [mailto:[email protected] <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> ] On > Behalf Of Barry > Sent: Thursday, December 06, 2007 7:02 AM > To: [email protected] <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> > Subject: [flexcoders] Combo as itemEditor > > > > I am using a comboBox component as an itemEditor within a datagrid and > am dispatching an event on a change in the comboBox > > dispatchEvent(new DataGridEvent("dgDataChange", true,false,col,field)); > > I can catch this and send it to a listener function no problem. > However, in the listener function I would like to access the selected > item of the ComboBox. > public function updateMe(event:DataGridEvent):void{ > > if(event.columnIndex ==0){ > //Do something with the data from the comboBox > }else{ > //Do Nothing > > } } > Does anyone have an idea how to get that data?
