ok, here is EmployeeVO.as
*package com.winn.vo
{
[Bindable]
public class EmployeeVO
{
public var employeeID:uint;
public var roleID:Number;
public var employeeTypeID:Number;
public var employeeStatusID:Number;
}
}*
then in my mxml file i have a simple datagrid
*<mx:DataGrid
id="employeeDataGrid"
width="100%" height="100%"
dataProvider="{ EmployeesModel.getInstance().employeesList }"
>*
with a click listener
*employeeDataGrid.addEventListener( MouseEvent.CLICK, clickHandler );*
and here is clickHandler
*public function clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
{
var testVO:EmployeeVO =
EmployeeVO(event.currentTarget.selectedItem);
Alert.show(testVO.employeeID.toString());
}*
and the selectedItem has these properties...
*employeeID = 1830 [0x726]
employeeStatusID = 2
employeeTypeID = 1
mx_internal_uid = "D3C...."
roleID = 3*
