Yeah, I still can't get it to work. I've simplified the test down to a basic DG. Adding editable=true on the DG disables the up and down arrow.
Here's the test project. The data file can be found at http://www.talonrisk.com/apps/test/data.xml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; layout="absolute"> <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ import mx.rpc.events.ResultEvent; import mx.events.DataGridEvent; import mx.events.ListEvent; private var sRow:int; private var sCol:int; private function selectCell(event:ListEvent):void{ sCol = event.columnIndex; sRow = event.rowIndex; sRowText.text = "Selected Row: " + sRow.toString(); sColText.text = "Selected Column: " +sCol.toString(); } private function focusHandler (event:DataGridEvent):void{ sRow = event.rowIndex; sCol = event.columnIndex; sRowText.text = "Selected Row: " + sRow.toString(); sColText.text = "Selected Column: " + sCol.toString(); } private function resHandler(event:ResultEvent):void{ dg.dataProvider = event.result.TABLE.X; } ]]> </mx:Script> <mx:HTTPService url="data.xml" result="resHandler(event)" id="data"/> <mx:VBox height="100%" width="100%" creationComplete="data.send()"> <mx:HBox width="100%"> <mx:Text id="sColText"/> <mx:Text id="sRowText"/> </mx:HBox> <mx:DataGrid id="dg" height="100%" width="100%" itemClick="selectCell(event)" itemFocusIn="focusHandler(event)" editable="true"> <mx:columns> <mx:DataGridColumn dataField="date" editable="true" rendererIsEditor="true"/> <mx:DataGridColumn dataField="char" editable="true" rendererIsEditor="true"/> <mx:DataGridColumn dataField="num" editable="true" rendererIsEditor="true"/> </mx:columns> </mx:DataGrid> </mx:VBox> </mx:Application> --- In [email protected], "Alex Harui" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > The dataGrid also has editable=true?
