[SIZE=2]hi there, I posted this message in the Flash 8 section, but it might be the same coding with the FlashMX 2004…

I’ve recently been trying to skin the dataGrid Component. I was wondering if someone know how to have a transparency background?

Some forums says that **myDataGrid.[COLOR=blue]setStyle[/COLOR][COLOR=seagreen]COLOR=black;** work fine! ☹ But it doesn’t work!

Also, I can’t remove the HeaderSeparator!

If anyone could come up with a solution that would be much appreciated!!!  
Because my brain gonna popOut! :hr:
