I already have a working model that uploads file to ColdFusion but I want to be able to pass additional data as well. If I understand you correctly I should create a new data type that extends FileReference and just add to it what i need?

Sending it to the server? Normally, you will need to keep track of that field somewhere on the client and the best place is in your data, so adding a field to FileReference via subclassing or aggregation (a new class that contains a FileReference plus a new field) is recommended. ________________________________ From: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> ] On Behalf Of Dan Vega Sent: Friday, June 06, 2008 12:27 PM To: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [flexcoders] DataGrid Item Editor Question I have this data grid that holds a list of files. These files are fileReferences that are selected by a user browsing the system. After the select a file the data shows the name/ext/size. What I want is a 4th column for the user to select a value from the drop down. I get an error with the code below because there is no default value. I am not sure how I would go about this because the fileReference object does not hold this data so I can not give it a dataField.
