Sorting data in a DataGrid in Flash 8 professional

I have an array in Flash 8 that is used to populate a DataGrid using:

myDataGrid.dataProvider = myArray;

This works fine. I can sort the data in the grid using the headers, but this also sorts the data in the source array. Also, I have other functions that need to get the array data in its original unsorted form.

Any idea how to achieve this?

Many thanks

just duplicate the variable before you use it as the dataProvider.

var myDataProvider:Array = myArray

myDataGrid.dataProvider = myDataProvider

changes to one of these arrays won't effect the other.
