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.
