for each(test:Object in records){ if(grid.selectedItem.PAYMENT_TYPE_CODE == test[i].code) Alert.show(test[i].text ); } would that do it? -eric --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "Jason B" <nos...@...> wrote: > > var records:Array = new Array({ > "AC": "Remember to reset the station address.", > "RN": "Remember to reset the station expiration date.", > "CP": "Remember to contact contractor to remove the > certificates from this station.", > "CR": "Remember to cancel the refund payment." > }); > > > for each(test:Object in records){ > > //HERE we match up PAYMENT TYPE CODE with AC RN CP if one is a match we show > the value > > if(grid.selectedItem.PAYMENT_TYPE_CODE == test[i]) > Alert.show(SHOW ME --->"Remember to reset the station address" ); > > > > } > > > datagrid hidden column AC, RN, CP are in datagrid > user selects RT item from grid and hits button > system match's that row with what message should be displayed > user never see's RT since its a hidden field in grid > user now see's a message displayed as a reminder > > > > > > > > --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "Paul Andrews" <paul@> wrote: > > > > Jason, > > > > I'm not sure I follow exactly what the problem is now. > > > > Paul > > ----- Original Message ----- > > From: "Jason B" <nospam@> > > To: <flexcoders@yahoogroups.com> > > Sent: Thursday, May 21, 2009 4:02 PM > > Subject: [flexcoders] Re: simple array? > > > > > > >i want to loop the records and compare the value "addresschange" to the > > >PAYMENT Type Code if its the right one display it > > > > > > > > > --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "Paul Andrews" <paul@> wrote: > > >> > > >> > > >> ----- Original Message ----- > > >> From: "Jason B" <nospam@> > > >> To: <flexcoders@yahoogroups.com> > > >> Sent: Thursday, May 21, 2009 3:46 PM > > >> Subject: [flexcoders] Re: simple array? > > >> > > >> > > >> > Thanks but i dont know how to do a compare based on your example show? > > >> > > >> for(var i:uint = 0; i < records.length; i++) { > > >> //If array matchs show text > > >> if(payment_grid.selectedItem.PAYMENT_TYPE_CODE == > > >> records[i].addresschange){ > > >> Alert.show(records[i].addresschange); > > >> } > > >> } > > >> > > >> > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > for(var i:uint = 0; i < records.length; i++) { > > >> > //If array matchs show text > > >> > if(payment_grid.selectedItem.PAYMENT_TYPE_CODE == records.valueof > > >> > ????){ > > >> > Alert.show(records[0].addresschange); > > >> > > > >> > } > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Pedro Sena <sena.pedro@> wrote: > > >> >> > > >> >> records[0].addresschange > > >> >> > > >> >> You are putting an object inside your array > > >> >> > > >> >> Using records[0] you retrieve your object > > >> >> using records[0].addresschange you access its property called > > >> >> addresschange > > >> >> > > >> >> On Thu, May 21, 2009 at 11:14 AM, Jason B <nospam@> wrote: > > >> >> > > >> >> > > > >> >> > > > >> >> > var records:Array = new Array({ > > >> >> > addresschange: "Remember to reset the station address.", > > >> >> > etc..... > > >> >> > }); > > >> >> > > > >> >> > > > >> >> > Alert.show(records['addresschange']); > > >> >> > Alert.show(records[0]); > > >> >> > Alert.show(records.addresschange); > > >> >> > > > >> >> > how the heck can i access the item directly by index name? > > >> >> > > > >> >> > > > >> >> > > > >> >> > > >> >> > > >> >> > > >> >> -- > > >> >> /** > > >> >> * Pedro Sena > > >> >> * Systems Architect > > >> >> * Sun Certified Java Programmer > > >> >> * Sun Certified Web Component Developer > > >> >> */ > > >> >> > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > ------------------------------------ > > >> > > > >> > -- > > >> > Flexcoders Mailing List > > >> > FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt > > >> > Alternative FAQ location: > > >> > https://share.acrobat.com/adc/document.do?docid=942dbdc8-e469-446f-b4cf-1e62079f6847 > > >> > Search Archives: > > >> > http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.comYahoo!
