An AIR gotcha
Flex, AIRI am working on an AIR application at work and I thought I would post a little gotcha when creating an application that does not use the default system chrome.
The documentation says to set the systemChrome to none, and set transparent to true and that will turn off the chrome... well... almost. If you are building a Flex based AIR application, you also have to set showFlexChrome to false as well, or you still get the flex chrome... Hope this helps someone :)

How To: Dynamic Datagrid
FlexI have an example to share with you all. I am on a project that needed to be able to load a datagrids columns dynamically. Now, I had done something similar at one point, but not like this. I figured I would share this with you all(without giving away project secrets) a simple example of how to define datagrid columns and their data at runtime.

Code from Presentation
FlexOk, I have the code ready for use. Adding and viewing employees is what is working. I figured I would leave it to you to see if you can get edits working and to use that as an avenue for you to ask questions.
The SQL scripts are for SQL 2005 but I can make ones for 2000 or MySQL. Although it wouldn't take much to do it anyway.

A count down timer component
FlexOn a project I am working on, I needed a count down timer. The first iteration was just built into the MXML file that needed the counter, but I soon wanted/needed to use this in other places. I also need more control over the layout so I decided to make this a component.
One thing I am finding about making this a component is that the code is much cleaner now and actually smaller that the original inline timer I made. I released this last night and realized that it has some bugs, but I have fixed those. I am including a MXML app that uses the counter so you can see it in action.
To change where it starts, just change the minutes attribute and there you go.
You are free to use this however you see fit.
