Use my solution and but have another array that gets
constructed programmatically based on the use selection and get assigned to the
DataGrid. That's how I would do it.

DataGridColumn "id" attrubute is gone??
I am also facing a similar problem (atleast I think its similar :) ). I would
like to provide my users with an option to hide/show columms. So, I provide a
small popup with the column names with a scheckbox beside each. I was trying to
make it work so that when the user unchecks a checkbox, the column gets hidden.
But, since I am unable to access a single column through id, I am unable to do
something like columnid.visible=false. :(Suzy Lawson wrote:
Thanks Dimitrios...yeah, that solution will solve my problem.
ALthough it doesn't seem ideal since I will have some of the
samecolumns stored in each Array. Oh well,as long as it's working right!?
How come the mxml tag DataGridColumn has an 'id' attribute
thoughbut the programatic way does not? Seems odd.--- In [EMAIL PROTECTED]ups.com,

way. The DataGrid's columnproperty takes an array DataGridColumn objects,
so what u do is createtwo sets of arrays: mx:Array
id="columns1" mx:DataGridColumn ... /
mx:DataGridColumn ... / ... /mx:Array
mx:Array id="columns2" mx:DataGridColumn ...
/ mx:DataGridColumn ... / ...
/mx:Array Then, when u need to, switch the columns
being attached to the grid,like so: if( ... ) {
dg.columns = columns1; } else { dg.columns =
columns2; } dg.dataProvider = values;
That should be enough to get u going.

Subject: [flexcoders] DataGridColumn "id" attrubute is gone??
I have a view state that hides/shows datagrid columns. I need the "id"
attribute in order to identify to the State which column to set the
'visible' value to. In mxml, there is a mx:
DataGridColumn id="" ../ attribute, HOWEVER, there is not one when
you do this: var dataGridColumn : DataGridColumn = new
DataGridColumn(); dataGridColumn.id="fromColumn";//
COMPILER ERROR 'id' does not exist How is this possible? I
appreciate your help in advance. Thanks.
