I have no idea how you would use Catalyst - I haven't used it.

I know you can't embed an MXML file like you are trying. You may like to peruse 
the archives of this list as I seem to remember seeing something like this 
before. Perhaps compiling your MXML file to a SWF and embedding that may help.

I will leave this to people more in the know about skinning.

 thank you. Yeah, I've seen those but how do I use something created in 
 catalyst? It gives me a bunch of mxml files that replace the jpeg or png 
 files you'd normally have. How do I use those? I get an error w/ this:
 
 upArrowSkin: Embed(source=../assets/scrollUpArrow2.mxml);
 
 but when I replace it w/ a .png file there are no problems.

   newbie here, using flex 4.
   
   I've seen many posts about creating custom components but none really 
   explain how to use them in a text box or datagrid. How do I use my custom 
   scrollbar in a datagrid?
   
   In my mxml application I have in the opening application tag the 
   following: 
   
   xmlns:custom=org.custom.*
   
   In my datagrid, I've tryed setting verticalScrollBarStyleName to my 
   component's name, which is customSroll. I have no idea where to go from 
   here.
   
   thx!

I resolved the problem, here is the solution if anyone is interested: 

?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml; 
layout=vertical
  xmlns:fnw=assets.src.components.* creationComplete=addChildren
();
 
 mx:Style source=assets/src/styles/fnw.css/
 mx:Script
  ![CDATA[
   import assets.src.components.FNWPanel;
   
   private function addChildren():void{
var myFNWPanel:FNWPanel = new FNWPanel;

divider.fnwLeftPanel.addChild(myFNWPanel);
  
   }
  ]]
 /mx:Script
 
 fnw:FNWDivider id=divider
  
 /fnw:FNWDivider
  
 
/mx:Application
