Oops, maybe misread your question. You are not asking about accessing deeply nested values, but rather how to set the combobox selectedItem to match its current value?
Or maybe you are just asking about declaring "dataField"?

Hey all, I've got a combo box with a dataprovider set to an array of value objects. Inside this value object are fields like name, and id. I've got the "name" as my label field but i'm not sure how to tell Flex that i want the value object with an id of 3 to be my selectedIndex value. thoughts? -- jonese http://www.jonese.us <http://www.jonese.us> http://twitter.com/jonese <http://twitter.com/jonese>
