Hi Scott, I tried your suggestion and in my handleMenuSelectEvent, I do:
var dataGrid:DataGrid = event.contextMenuOwner as DataGrid; dataGrid.selectedIdex = (event.mouseTarget as DataGridItemRenderer).listData.rowIndex - 1; but this solution does not always work, because event.mouseTarget does not always return a DataGridItemRenderer, it somes return a ListBaseContentHolder, in which case the above code would not work. Are you getting the index of the row being clicked from somewhere else? Thanks.
