toArray()

I have a filterFunction that filters the DP down to a subset of the dataProvider. I reference the dataProvider , myDG.dataProvider. But, how do I reference just the filtered down data? myDG.dataProvider gives me all data, not filtered data. Having trouble finding the property where the filterFunction result set is stored. I'm hoping it lives in an ArrayCollection somewhere already. If not, how would I build an ArrayCollection of the results as it filter all items? I want to pass just the filtered down data to another component. Thanks, Don Below is an example of one of my filters: public function processFilter(item:Object):Boolean { var result:Boolean=false; //make sure there is a search term if(term.text != null && term.text.length > 0) { //get the search term as upper case var searchTerm:String = term.text.toUpperCase(); //check against the title if(item.crNumber != null && item.title.length > 0) { result = (item.crNumber.toUpperCase().indexOf(searchTerm) != -1); } //no need to check doc number if title already matched or if there is no docNumber if(result == false && item.docNumber != null && item.docNumber.length > 0) { result = (item.docNumber.toUpperCase().indexOf(searchTerm) != -1); } if(result == false && item.title != null && item.title.length > 0) { result = (item.title.toUpperCase().indexOf(searchTerm) != -1); } } return result; }
