I’ve been having some problems with a list component lately.  
I’ve added about 50 items to it in actionscript using this syntax.

```auto
myList.addItem({label:"Label1", data:"Data1"});

```

Now when I want to remove some of them I run into problems as I don’t know how to do it.

```auto
myList.removeItemAt(0 or 1 or 2....)

```

This seems to work until some point… It removes every 2nd. item and only allows 25 items to be removed.

Is there a better way to manage your list components in AS3 ?

Thanks!
