Thanks Alex. Yeah, currently I'm taking a similar approach, triggering a
method when *model.suppliers* changes ....
dataProvider="{
CollectionUtils.convertToPromptArrayCollection(model.suppliers) }"
and that method is:
public static function
convertToPromptArrayCollection(value:ArrayCollection):PromptArrayCollection
{
return new PromptArrayCollection([{label:'[ all ]', data:-1}], value);
}

that sounds like making the class support change notifications is perhaps
not the easiest thing then :)
Much appreciated.
