Hi, I'm glad it worked. There was a mistake in my first post: the object you want to call the function on needs to be added to the Delegate call. In your case:
dg.getColumnAt( 0 ).labelFunction = mx.utils.Delegate.create(dgVH, dgVH.labelFunc); This enforces that the function is called with the right scope.

So I tried just dg.getColumnAt( 0 ).labelFunction = dgVH.labelFunc; and this did work. Its a big improvement over wrapping external class functions with a function! But what I was originally trying to do was set the labelfunction in the MXML which was giving the error I described. I also tried your suggestion here, but this didn't work either. Thanks for your pointer, Regards, Simon Fifield -----Original Message----- From: Dirk Eismann [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 30 March 2005 15:05 To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [flexcoders] LabelFunctions and SortFunctions Have you tried using the mx.utils.Delegate class? myGrid.getColumnAt(0).labelFunction = mx.utils.Delegate.create(anotherClassInstance, anotherFunction); haven't tested it, but it should work. Dirk. -----Original Message----- From: Simon Fifield [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 30, 2005 4:03 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Com Subject: [flexcoders] LabelFunctions and SortFunctions At the moment a labelFunction or sortFunction has to be defined in the MXML file that it is being used in. It would be nice to be able to use an external Class to achieve this and thus enhance code clarity and re-use. Does anyone have any ideas on this? Kind Regards, Simon Fifield Yahoo!
