Use ItemRenderer for Display and itemEditor for Edit. If you make the Grid editable you have what you want
<mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Description" dataField="Description"> <mx:itemEditor> <mx:Component> <mx:ComboBox width="100%" /> </mx:Component> </mx:itemEditor> <mx:itemRenderer> <mx:Component> <mx:Label text = "data.Text"/> </mx:Component> </mx:itemRenderer> </mx:DataGridColumn> ________________________________ Von: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] im Auftrag von Fidel Viegas [EMAIL PROTECTED] Gesendet: Dienstag, 29.

The thing is that I want to show a label with an icon when the column is in a normal (non editable state), and show the combo box when the user clicks the column to edit it. Does anyone have an example or some tips on how to achieve this? Thanks in advance, Fidel.
