You need to declare the IMAGES only in the main.mxml in other words where ever the tag is, otherwise the icon wont show up in the combo box. Method 2: This is better coz u can see the icon after a selection is made unlike method1 which shows icons only when dropdown is mainfested. http://flexibleexperiments.wordpress.com/2007/04/28/flex-201-combobox-with-icon-support/ Method 1:
