Jim & buithanhtuu,

Thank you for posting this issue and 'workaround'. This bug was re-
entered by Matt Chotin on March 27th, probably as a result of his 
reading this entry, it previously had been unresolved, let's hope 
this bug is fixed, it is a serious problem with Charting 
Applications, I also have a huge project on this... I have given up 
trying to find an answer and appreciate this workaround below.  I 
have not upgraded to 3.0 because of this issue and will now purchase 
Pro 3.0  to see if I can accomplish this... if there is anything else 
anyone knows to get around this issue with 2.0 please let me know... 
I have signed up to the Adobe Bug Report ...

https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/SDK-15081

Let's hope this one does not get closed out as unresolved like the 
others!!

Craig
