Allmas, Thanks! - that's exactly where I ended up - this was basically a Flex 4 learning curve issue.

The itemRenderer that has all the items horizontally I need. The problem I'm running into is getting the header (which I've created outside of the List control to have the labels that line up with my itemrenderer elements. Things work great until my list requires scrolling. Then the 16 pixel scrollbar throws things out of whack. I could probably make a simple adjustment if I could detect the presence of the scrollbar on the list component and adjust my header elements accordingly. I just haven't been able to figure out how to do that yet. Anyone dealt with this? Jeff
