That is my posting, and I would hate for it to be misinformation in
any way. If your research turns up no evidence that I am correct then I
will endeavor to re-create my problem in a sample application that I can

Sorry, if I ruffled feathers,

Not sure if you can do all of that from within flex... but you can
certainly do it via JavaScript's window.open() method. If you want to
do it that way you will need to make a call to ExternalInterface.call()
to call the JS method on the HTML page that contains your swf.

You need to set the ArrayCollection.sort property... have a look at
mx.collections.Sort and mx.collections.SortField. There are examples on
