It should just be the .data property. What did you try? However, I'd look at the examples on my blog (blogs.adobe.com/aharui). You probably don't need to use VBox which is pretty heavy.

In a itemrenderer I'd like to access a {data} value in a Script in the itemrenderer. I just can't figure out how to do this. I have an ArrayCollection as the dataprovider for the DataGrid. In a Column, I sue a itemrenderer "status" Inside renderer.status.as I have a VBox, with a init() function. Inside init I'd like to test if "data.repeating" != null and if so, set a label to a specific value, if not null, set to another value. <vbox><script></script><label/></vbox> Please - can anyone help me out with an example on how to accomplish this, I hope, simple task. (The reason for using a VBox was that I had my hopes for setting the background color also, so if != null color=XX + text = XX etc. Thanks for your time Mark
