set value to children

hi guys

i have this code

if(pair.length == 2){
var status:String = pair[0];   //will show CEO
var [b]days[/b]:Object = pair[1];  //will show a number
}

Open in new window

now i want to set the days to listItem's children like this

listItems[i][0].data.children[0].children[0].children[0].[b]actualDays[/b]= [b]days[/b];

Open in new window

but actualDaysis not getting updated. Will the above line work?

thanks

The same problme you have to parse your data and split to the mutiple columns before you will pass to dataProvider

Example:

var array:Array = [{CEO:111}, {ENG:222}, {SALES:333}];

convert to

var array:Array = [{status:CEO, days:111}, {status:ENG, days:222}, {status:SALES, days:333}];

Now in your DataGrid you can create two columns status and days and data will come without any problems

but why do i need Array
I just need to set the days value from var days:Object = pair[1]; to the actualDays property
like this

listItems[i][0].data.children[0].children[0].children[0].actualDays= days;
