Re: [flexcoders] selecting a pre-determined row in a datagrid

[Chris Ivens]

Can you do a getItemIndex() and getItemAt() afterwards. That is unless  
there is a better way.

Hi.

I have a datagrid component which has a dataProvider of an
arraycollection of objects.

I also have a variable "selectedItem", which holds an object that has
been selected elsewhere in the application.

What I need is, when I create my datagrid, to set the background
colour of the row corresponding to this selectedItem object.

So I guess I need to loop through the dg's rows, comparing the
dataItem of the row to selectedItem. However, I don't know how to loop
the rows in a DataGrid??
It's so easy in C#.NET, and not here, so I think I may be approaching
this from the wrong angle.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
