This example shows how you can use components inside the the datagrid. If you have not worked with data binding before, it is recommended to first read the following Browsing a Catalog >>.
In this example a checkbox, combobox and a custom icon is used inside the datagrid component. The flash mx 2004 documentation briefly explains how to add components to a cell using the Cell Renderer API, but it is difficult to understand and use. Luckily there is an example that we can use as a base to expand upon (mx.controls.cells.CheckCellRenderer). By following how this works it is not difficult to figure out how to add other components to a cell.
