Hi Scott, Firstly while creating a Custom Component I believe you have created it as a partial document. If so then you must have provided a binding which you must have specified. Now in the Custom DropDown Component you also should have written get-set methods to accept the values. If that is not the case please let me know. Now coming back to your queries#1 you should bind the selected binding of your Custom Component to a dummy reciever object which is of the same type as that of the objects present in each row Array of the Array. So the user will now be selecting an Object instead of a value. Now with the selected Object you can easily go ahead and extract the value that you require.
Let me know if that solves your problems.
