Still playing around with Flash Remoting and I stumbled a cross an entry that described how to change the header style of a data grid. After having applied that I looked into changing the column names. These were being passed back by my CFC and they relied on database columns, which weren’t the nicest to read. For example I wanted to change companyName into company. The following little action script snippet allows you to achieve this: [as]import mx.controls.gridclasses.DataGridColumn; yourDataGridInstanceName.columnNames = [“contactName”, “companyName”, “contactPhone”, “summary”]; //customize column headers var contactCol:DataGridColumn = yourDataGridInstanceName.getColumnAt(0); contactCol.headerText = “Contact”; // var companyCol:DataGridColumn = yourDataGridInstanceName.getColumnAt(1); companyCol.headerText = “Company”; // var activityCol:DataGridColumn = yourDataGridInstanceName.getColumnAt(2); phoneCol.headerText = “Phone”; // var summaryCol:DataGridColumn = yourDataGridInstanceName.getColumnAt(3); summaryCol.headerText = “Summary”;[/as] Then simply save this as an external ActionScript file and include it in frame 1 of your movie, hey presto customised headers.
