Adding a record when xml is empty? - Ext JS

Hi I am testing it in alpha2:

var condition = new record({
ExternalId: '0',
Name: 'Mostly Shade',
Description: 'a description',
Condition: 'a Condition',
Contex: 'a Context',
AValue: 'a Context',
Attribute: 'a Context',
Operator: 'a Context',
SearchType: 'a Context'
});
ds.insert(0, condition);
gridSearchCondition.startEditing(0, 0);

and work ok when the xml have rows, but don't work (I get error) when the xml is empty, the objects Ext.grid.ColumnModel, Ext.data.Store, Ext.data.XmlReader don't have enough information to detect 0 rows and create a row?

which is the better way to add a row when is empty the xml in ext1?

kind regards
Frank

hicker now I was testing using ext1 alpha3 rev2 and it work ok InsertAddress: function(){ var adataSource = gridAddress.getDataSource(); adataSource.clearFilter(); r = showGridContactAddress.onGetRecord(); var recAddress = new r({ ExternalId: '0', Flag: '3', Address1: 'Type an Address ', Address2: '', City: '', Country: '', County: '', PostalCode: '', StateAbbreviation: '', Zip: '', AddressType: 'Postal' }); recAddress.modified = true; adataSource.insert(0, recAddress); var Count = adataSource.data.items.length; gridAddress.startEditing(0, 0); adataSource.filter('Flag', /[^1]/);//show row different 1 } I mean I have a grid with 0 rows and I can add a new record, are you test it with alpha3 rev2? kind regards Frank
