Thank you for all your suggestions and help. Seth suggested to me
yesterdaty that I start using flex. To be honest I cant wait to get in to
flex but as many of us know where there is a deadline there isn't much
time for leaning. Well the good news is that I was able get my problem to
work yesterday; after reading an article about that very thing; took me a
bit but I was able to make it work.
Here is what I had to do. I had to create two functions, one to look
through the cfgrid to get the data. A second to declare the cfselect
fields, this function is called from the onchange param in the cfgrid.
<cfformitem type="script">
public function selectOption(select:
mx.controls.ComboBox,optionToSelect:String):Void {
for (var i:Number = 0; i< select.length; i++) {
if (select.getItemAt([i]).data == optionToSelect){
select.selectedIndex = i;
break;
}
}
}
function userGridChanged():Void {
selectOption(SECSTATUSID, AppUsers.selectedItem.SECSTATUSID);
selectOption(DIV_DEPARTMENTID,
AppUsers.selectedItem.DIV_DEPARTMENTID);
AppUsers.setFocus();
}
</cfformitem>
Once I did this each select dropdown would change accordingly when I
selected the record in the grid.
Now my next issue is this I would like to display another grid based on
the ID from the previous grid so in old school terms a loop with in a
loop. If anyone has anything please send any suggestions you may have if
not

Subject: [houcfug] Re: cfgrid data to a cfselect using bind
Ernie,
Laura has some excellent examples on binding here
http://www.asfusion.com/examples/
Bind in not supported in CFSELECT in MX7. CF8 does free up
some binding limitations, but I don't know about CFSELECT.
Mike Nimer has a workaround here

but I haven't personally tried it myself.
Hope this helps.
