Flex, DataGrids, Oh My!

Soon, I will be posting some really boring boring ..zzz.. posts. But, it'll be nice to remember these things for the future. Flex 2.0 has some funky stuff and I'd like to remember it for reference.

Namely, working with DataGrids and Item renderers - and more specifically, Date item renderers. Converting stuff from a String to a Date, back to a String. That's a pain, there should be an easier way of doing things.

Move On...

This is just for myself to remember..

public string testDate(string testDate)
{
string message = "";
if ( testDate.Length != 0 )
{
DateTime testing = DateTime.Parse(testDate);
message = testing.ToString();
}
else
{
message = "No Date.";
}
return message;
}

Some things to think about today..

• Flex 2 and calling .NET Web Services through Actionscript
  
• Thinking of writing some functions with C# that have to do with engineering, instead of web
  
• Figure out Flex 2 and Actionscript and find a decent reference book.
  

Ya know, not worrying about getting pregnant is a LOT more fun than worrying about getting pregnant.

Welp, I tried to buy tickets to a BoSox game. No avail. I guess it doesn't help that they're playing the White Sox when we'll be in town. Oh well. I could have bought tickets for a game a day after we got home. But, that's no fun.

..on the good side of things, tomorrow is Friday and I think we've finally unpacked all our books (that we hadn't unpacked for 5yrs.) and have them on shelves. This is exciting! Time to buy more books!
