Hi Ben,
Thanks for your reply..
I added a custom sortable function and it looks like it fails when
it finds any null values !!
The function i wrote is:
[CODE]
private function comparGridItem(itema:Node,itemb:Node):int{
var filteredField:String = selectedColumn;
trace("Selected Field ="+filteredField);
var itemValueA:String =
itema.propertyHolderMap[filteredField];
trace(" Val1 ="+itemValueA);
var itemValueB:String =
itemb.propertyHolderMap[filteredField];
trace(" Val2 ="+itemValueB);
if(itemValueA!=null && itemValueB !=null){
if(itemValueA > itemValueB){
return -1;
}else if(itemValueA < itemValueB){
return 1;
}else{
return 0;
}
}
else{
if(itemValueA==null) return 1;
else return -1;
}
}
[/CODE]
Does this mean if any of the Columns have null values it will throw
this Exception ??
Here is my output from the trace log..
[EXCEP]
Selected Field =namedisplay
Val1 =Records Series A
Val2 =Records Series B
Selected Field =namedisplay
Val1 =Test Data
Val2 =Records Series B
