Refresh() is intended to re-apply a sort of filter to a collection. If it is working in your case it is a side effect. I couldn't find your previous post to look at the code, but I still suspect recycling issues. For a combo box, you have to do two actions on set data (actually in

This is a common requirement. The basic concept is that the checkbox item renderer must be correctly written (find an example, do not start from scratch), and then on the change event of the header renderer, update the appropriate field in each of the dataProvider items. You will find several

In my experience the smallest app using the flex framework weighs in at about 120KB. I expect that will get bigger with each version iteration. The size of your app will depend on what parts of the framework you are using. eg, the charting classes add about 100KB to your app if you use them.
