Id like to have an XMLConnector read an xml-file (containing dates, and a “To Do” string for each date).
A DateChooser should be on stage, enabling the user to select a date, and view the textstring for that specific date pop up in a DataGrid.
Something very similar to this tutorial, in the section “Arrays and Indexing”, replacing the ComboBox with a DateChooser:

I tried modifying the tutorial accordingly, but without success. I guess my skills aint good enough to accomplish this yet.
Anybody here understands the ins and outs of this type of databinding?
well, i rekon i can help a little. I would set up the xml document like this;
<Datapack>
<Data>
<Date>some date here</Date>
<Todo>some data here</Todo>
</Data>
<Data>
<Date>some date here</Date>
<Todo>some data here</Todo>
</Data>
</Datapack>
This script is self explanatory, it stores all the information you have in a neat, easyily accessible format.
Now,the way in which i would retrieve this data is use the xml class.
var myXML:XML = new XML();
myXML.load(http://yourdomain.com/datapack.xml);
i feel i can help more like handling the data and using it but first let me know if this is at all relavent to you 
First of all, the xml-structure is nice and tidy, so Ill use it 
But Im using the xmlconnector component, which means you dont have to load the file manually with the code you wrote. The component handles it automatically, so its basically just a matter of getting the dataconnections between the components XMLConnector, DateChooser, and DataGrid to be configured correctly. Thats where the problem lies.
Thanks for the reply, though
