Thanks Paul
Sorry, I did try to search for the answer myself but wasn't really sure what
to look for. This is still my first flex project and I gotta say I am not
enjoying it.
Anyway the following that you suggested works fine, albeit there is a bit of
a flash
markSheetXMLData = _dataManager.returnMarkSheetData().group;
tile2.verticalScrollBar.scrollPosition = 0;
Thanks
Paul

Check out the help docs!
I'm not sure if you mean scroll the datagrid, or scrollbars on the hbox.
DataGrid:
scrollToIndex
()
method
public function scrollToIndex(index:
<http://127.0.0.1:61597/help/nftopic/com.adobe.flexbuilder.help/langref/int.
html> int):
<http://127.0.0.1:61597/help/nftopic/com.adobe.flexbuilder.help/langref/Bool
ean.html> Boolean
Ensures that the data provider item at the given index is visible. If the
item is visible, the verticalScrollPosition property is left unchanged even
if the item is not the first visible item. If the item is not currently
visible, the verticalScrollPosition property is changed make the item the
first visible item, unless there aren't enough rows to do so because the
verticalScrollPosition value is limited by the maxVerticalScrollPosition
property.
HBox:
Ifyou mean the scroll bar on a HBox then use the scrollPosition property of
the HBox scrollbar. The HBox has a scrollbar property: verticalScrollBar.
So, for your hbox it would be tile2.verticalScrollBar.scrollPosition = 0;

I want to reset a scroll bar to the top when returning to a dynamically
populated datagrid in my app. Basically the datagrid displays info about
different students so clicking on a students name in a list takes you to
this datagrid. Problem is if I am looking at the data of one student and
scroll down this info, then leave this section and return as a different
student, the scroll bar is where I left it with the previous student
Here is the code of the relevant section. As no scroll bar is explicitly
coded, I do not know how to ensure it resets.
<mx:VBox width="720" id="tile2" height="190">
<mx:Repeater id="markSheetRepeater"
dataProvider="{this.markSheetXMLData}" >
<local:MarkSheetItem
xmlItem="{markSheetRepeater.currentItem}" id="markSheetItem">
</local:MarkSheetItem>
</mx:Repeater>
</mx:VBox>
Btw this is Flexbuilder 2
Thanks in advance
Paul
