comboBox addItem (data:variable)

programming flash
1

Hi there

I’ve got a combo box adding items from an array. The labels are working just fine, but adding the data with a variable won’t work for me. If I put in an actual number, I get that result, but trying to add it with a variable I always get 1 as a result. classData only ever = 1. I can access the array. I know it must be in the syntax. I’ve tried

yourClasses_cb.addItem({data:String(classData),label:classLabel});

yourClasses_cb.addItem({data:Number(classData),label:classLabel});

yourClasses_cb.addItem({data:[classData],label:classLabel});

I don’t know why it works for classLabel and not for classData. The whole section of code is here:

for (j=0; j<ComboNames.length; j++) {
			classLabel = ComboNames[j];
			classData = classIDs[j];
			yourClasses_cb.addItem({data:classData,label:classLabel});
			trace("Your class list (there should be "+classIDs.length+" items)"+classIDs+" Calling just the 10th item in the array: "+classIDs[10]+" calling for the variable classData "+classData);
		}

Please let me know if I’ve got something obviously wrong here…
Thanks a bunch
