what am I missing then? My code never gets to the the 
createPNRToolTip function referenced in the toolTipCreate event 
handler. I messed around with the showDataTips property on the grid 
itself, and it didn't change the behavior.

<mx:DataGrid width="100%" height="100%" 
dataProvider="{pnrsToProcess}">
<mx:columns>
 <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="PNR" dataField="pnrLocator">
        <mx:itemRenderer>                               
        <mx:Component>                                  
          <mx:Label text="{data.pnrLocator}"        
toolTipCreate="outerDocument.createPNRToolTip(event)"/>         
        </mx:Component>
        </mx:itemRenderer>
</mx:columns>
</mx:DataGrid>

public function createPNRToolTip(event:ToolTipEvent):void {
                        
}
