Hii Tracy,
Here is my repeater(am using 3 repeaters, to have three columns to prevent
having a scrollbar).
Suggest me if there is any better way to do this, although it's not the
issue at the moment.
I have highlighted the problematic code in handler method below.
Code for repeater:
<mx:HBox id="hb" height="100%" width="100%">
        <mx:VBox id="vb1" height="100%" width="200">
                <mx:Repeater id="r1" dataProvider="{myData}" startingIndex="1" 
count="20"
repeat="validateChecks(event)">
                <mx:CheckBox id="chkFirstColumn" 
label="{r1.currentItem.keyword_value_id}"
data="{r1.currentItem}"/>
                </mx:Repeater>          
        </mx:VBox>
        <mx:VBox id="vb2" height="100%" width="200">
                <mx:Repeater id="r2" dataProvider="{myData}" startingIndex="21" 
count="20"
repeat="validateChecks(event)">
                <mx:CheckBox id="chkSecondColumn"
label="{r2.currentItem.keyword_value_id}" data="{r1.currentItem}"/>
                </mx:Repeater>          
        </mx:VBox>                              
        <mx:VBox id="vb3" height="100%" width="200">
                <mx:Repeater id="r3" dataProvider="{myData}" startingIndex="41" 
count="20"
repeat="validateChecks(event)">
                            <mx:CheckBox id="chkThirdColumn"
label="{r3.currentItem.keyword_value_id}" data="{r1.currentItem}"/>
                </mx:Repeater>          
        </mx:VBox>                              
</mx:HBox>

Code for Handler:
private function validateChecks(e:Event):void{
        if(e.currentTarget.id == "r1" && existingData.length() > 0){
                for(var j:uint = 0; j < existingData.length(); j++){
                        if(e.currentTarget.currentItem.keyword_value_key ==
existingData[j].keyword_value_key){
                                e.currentTarget.currentItem.selected = true; 
//Problem is here. It's not
working.I want to refer the checkbox inside repeater here.
                        }
                }
        }
}
