Hi.

I am quite new in Flex and would like to ask a simple question.

I am retrieving datasets from a .NET webservice and binding the same to a 
datagrid.  The datagrid comes with a feature that when you click on any of the 
headers, the column is sorted ASC or DESC.

Now, one column which I am binding to is originally a numeric column.  But when 
it binds to the datagrid, it's data type becomes string.  Is it possible that 
prior to binding the said column to the datagrid, I would be able to convert it 
back to its numeric data taype?  Since sorting the column in a string format 
would give a different result as compared to sorting the same column in a 
numeric format.

Thanks.

Regards.
