Question : Formatting rows in DataGrid to reflect information in XML file

I have an XML file that is displayed in a Flash DataGrid. The XML file is a collection of Jobs and the information pertaining to them (such as ID, Location, etc.) Each job is displayed on a row of the DataGrid. I want to add some formatting to the rows in the DataGrid based on information contained in the XML file. For example, if I add a subchild , and it contains the value Bold, I want the text in the whole row in the DataGrid showing that entry to be bold. Likewise, if the subchild s value is Red, then the background of the whole row showing that record would be colored Red. How do I do this in ActionScript 3.0?

 

Here is a sample of the XML code:



 
    0023
    Senior RFIC Design Engineer
    Technologype>
    Engineer, General
    5 - 10
    Los Gatos, CA
    BoldFormatting>
    Red
 


 

Currently I am using this code to populate the DataGrid, but I can do something completely different if it achieves the goal! It is in ActionScript 3.0:

import fl.controls.DataGrid;
import fl.data.DataProvider;

var dp:DataProvider;

var myDataGrid:DataGrid = new DataGrid();
myDataGrid.addColumn("JobID");
myDataGrid.addColumn("JobTitle");
myDataGrid.addColumn("JobType");
myDataGrid.addColumn("JobSubType");
myDataGrid.addColumn("JobYears");
myDataGrid.addColumn("JobLocation1");
myDataGrid.width = 750;
myDataGrid.height = 595;
myDataGrid.move(0, 0);
addChild(myDataGrid);

var url:String = "jobs.xml";
var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
var uLdr:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
uLdr.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);
uLdr.load(req);

function completeHandler(event:Event):void {
    var ldr:URLLoader = event.currentTarget as URLLoader;
    var xmlDP:XML = new XML(ldr.data);
    dp = new DataProvider(xmlDP);
    myDataGrid.dataProvider = dp;
}

Thanks!

Answer : Formatting rows in DataGrid to reflect information in XML file

Thanks for the examples, they are similar to what I am trying to do. Instead of loading an icon due to data, I want to format a whole row such as with a background color. Thanks for your help, but I am just super new to Flash.
