The changes made in grid will already be 'saved' in the object that represents your data which is most likely the same as the grid dataProvider. You will need to send your data object back to backend for parsing. My next blog post will cover detecting changes so you will have a concrete list of exactly which cells changed.

ListCollectionView class in Flex 4 is almost identical to the Flex 3 one. Unfortunately I'm still mostly working on Flex 3 and haven't experimented with monkey patching in Flex 4. But your issue sounds like a simple case of getting monkey patching in general to work using your configuration; this a good google search can help better than I. good luck and let me know if you find something that works.

I tried using this technique, but when i run it as Web Application it always picks up from the Flex library and not the patch... i tried preloading ListCollectionView.as but did not help much... let me know how to get this working in Flex 4 Deployed Application... i am not using RSL Does this work with Flex 4?

If so, it's a bit more complicated but doable; essentialy what you need to do is create a SWF of ONLY your monkey patch and load it before the Framework RSL's get loaded. Check out James Ward's link or google. http://www.jamesward.com/2009/03/10/flex-monkey-patching-and-framework-rsls/ 2) are you are patching this inside a Flex library? If you consider copying over your file to where your main Application is. Interestingly Flex won't complain about duplicate framework files in multiple projects. Let me know if that helped 2 questions Atul:

We had placed traces in the ListCollectionView to see if it is getting invoked, but it doesnt. I am suspecting there might be some build time (compile time behavior difference). Can you provide some inputs? Hi Tomek..this monkey patch works with a demo app i created but when i integrated with our project, it doesnt work.

It is a good first option if you don't care about propertyChanged being dispatched and updating your view. If you are using column footers or updating some other cells on the same row disableAutoUpdate just doesn't cut it. You need that propertyChanged to be raised so you can update your model and consequently have that update the view. If you programmatically update the value of the model (your dataProvider ArrayCollection) and disableAutoUpdate=true, the Grid will not refresh.
