Question

I want to have 2 dataproviders for 1 advancedDataGrid: 1 normal and second one for combobox in a one of columns. I want to have this combobox to have data from a column in database (i already have it in arrayCollection).
I just don’t know how to provide data for comboBox in a way that it doesn’t have to read that data from database every time for every comboBox (as custom component). Should I pass arrayCollection to custom component? or do it ‘inline’ in mxml? what’s the best way?

thanks for any help

The easiest is to

• create a static property on your itemrenderer and pass in the data
• or, lookup the data in the itemrenderer via a global variable
