All you have to do is replace the [TypeComboBoxRenderer] declaration from:
<!-- mxmlcomponents/TypeComboBoxRenderer.mxml --> <mx:VBox xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; > To: <mx:VBox xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; dataChange="{contactCombo.data=data.Type}"> Note: The dataChange is the event that is dispatched [TypeComboBoxRenderer] when somebody set the data.
