Thanks Ben.
I may be trying the wrong thing here, but this is the only workingway I came up with:
mx:XMLListCollection id="xlcReportGrid" source="{XMLList(cbReportInfoName.selectedItem.lineItems.columns.column)}"/ and then the Text control that binds to it:mx:TexthtmlText="{xlcReportGrid.getItemAt(0).content}" /
cbReportInfoName is a dropdown combo (the last in a chain)that gets its data from another combo which gets its data from an HTTPService (e4x). It seems, whenever the data gets "thru" thedataprovider of a ComboBox, its selectedItem object is nota XMLListCollection anymore (I think this was different with an ArrayCollection - before I used e4x as resultFormat from the HTTPService).
The problem with the aboveis that I cannot use the following (I would like to bind to nodes on different levels):
mx:XMLListCollection id="xlcReportGrid" source="{XMLList(cbReportInfoName.selectedItem)}"/ and thenbindit like this:mx:TexthtmlText="{xlcReportGrid.lineItems.columns.column.getItemAt(0).content}" /
This throws a compile error of "access to a possibly undefined property 'lineitems'..." Any ideas? thx -Iko

Looks something likemx:Text htmlText = "{myXml.myNodes[0].uniqueItem.toString()}" /This works well as a unidirectional binding from a data source, however, the compiler throws a warning saying "Databinding will not be able to detect changes when using square bracket operator. For Array please use ArrayCollection.getItemAt()".I was looking for a method that would allow node access via index, basically an equivalent of the getItemAt() method, but could not find anything. Could not cast to mx.collections.ArrayCollection either.Has someone done this before? thx.
