Hi,

Im currently designing something in flex and have run into an issue when playing with databinding

I have a list of names stored in an xml which i use for several things and occasinally new names will get added and removed from this list. I have databinded several items to this list to make everything all nice and consistant. However one item that uses the names list is a combobox, i want the first element of the combo box to say "Search All" and the rest of items to be names read from the names xml document

Is it possible to get the advantages and ease of databinding but still make some modificaitons to the data before the component acutally uses it?

Thanks for any help you can offer
