In addition, you can get information on the parent like this: http://flexdiary.blogspot.com/2008/07/musings-on-advanceddatagrid- part-5_03.html This is some code that illustrates the principle: private function onMenuItemClick(e:ListEvent):void{ if (e.itemRenderer.data is TaskUID){ //broadcast task to Authorware var dp:HierarchicalCollectionView=e.currentTarget.dataProvider as HierarchicalCollectionView; trace(dp.getParentItem (e.currentTarget.selectedItem)); } }
