geoff is dead on. There are a probably 100 ways to do what you want done.
states/transitions, event listeners, adding and removing the children via
actionscript and leaving in your initApp().
But, yeah, the least amnt of code (depending on the framework you're using)
would probably be adding this to your mxml: show=initApp()

I have a series of tabs and I use the show event in the individual
components. Then I keep a needsReloading boolean value that is based upon
event data from a controller. If the tab is selected, the show event kicks
in and the data is reloaded based upon the needsReloading boolean.
Not sure if that is what you are looking for but I hope it helps.

My application uses a ToggleButtonBar with a viewstack as it's
dataprovider. When the app is first loaded and each component is called in
the stack, it loads the component and runs it's initApp() on the
creationComplete. However when you go back it's already loaded and doesn't
run the initApp() and pull new external data.
Is there a way to automatically reload the component each time a generated
button is pushed in the ToggleButtonBar?
