I was mis-interpreting the error message on this. The problem was that for a line chart click event, the event handler tries to figure out datapoint was clicked by doing -- among other things -- props = ColumnSeries(hitData.element).displayName; Well obviously I need to be using LineSeries(hitData.element). So my question is this: How do I tell if the object that kicked it off is a Line chart or a column chart? The other way I was approaching this is to say "if this event came from the object with this id" but I dont know how to do that either. ??? brad

I get the following error: TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert mx.charts.series::[EMAIL PROTECTED] to mx.charts.series.ColumnSeries. Is there way to get around this? The perplexing thing is that I CAN drill down from a ColumnSeries chart to a LineSeries chart with no problem. ??? brad
