I typically create a static class to use for the RemoteObject. Each custom typed object in the collection has a reference to it and a method that can be called to tell it to load children. > Can I do it in my ItemRenderer? > Other option, If I catch a click from my AdvancedDataGrid and figure out the > parentId, and fetch the relevant data from the server, how can I activate the > Itemrenderer that I need to manipulate with this new data? The dataProvider for your ADG will always be a HierachichalCollectionView, which means you can easily get from parent to child and vice versa. If you start out with an empty ArrayCollection as the children property on each of your objects, then when that AC is updated (NOT REPLACED) by the result of a Remote Object call, then the AC should generate whatever events the ADG needs to fill itself in. > Many questions regard this Lazy loading, can you guide me here please?
