There's a bunch of custom DG/DGColumn examples on my blog (blogs.adobe.com/aharui)

Following is what I've done: I extended DataGrid to contain one more variable "columnConfigs:Array" (this array contains objects of type ColumnConfig which has headerText and columnCode as its instance variables). In the setter of columnConfigs, I set the headerText for each column of the datagrid. but the DataGridColumn does not have columnCode field, so I figured I need to extend DataGridColumn as well (DynamicDataGridColumn). But i can't think of a good way to make DynamicDataGrid to use an array of DynamicDataGridColumn for its "columns" attribute without knowing much about the internal implemenation of DataGrid. Could anyone give me any suggestion? Or if you have a better way of achieving I'm trying to do here, please help. Thanks. Ban
