Add a link to a file in a datagrid

[thelocopachuco]

Hello,
I'm trying to add a button in a datagrid that, when clicked, will
allow the user to download a pdf file.

DATAGRID:
<mx:DataGrid id="dgTips" x="126" y="10" width="210" height="50"
textAlign="center" dataProvider="{dgData}" showEffect="{dgTipsWipe}"
useRollOver="true">
<mx:columns>
<mx:Array>            
<mx:DataGridColumn headerText="A" dataField="a" width="30"/>
<mx:DataGridColumn headerText="B" dataField="b" width="30"/>
<mx:DataGridColumn headerText="C" dataField="c" width="30"/>
<mx:DataGridColumn headerText="D" dataField="d" width="30"/>
<mx:DataGridColumn headerText="E" dataField="e" width="30"/>
<mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Price" dataField="price" width="60"/>
<mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Drawing" dataField="pdf" width="80">
<mx:itemRenderer>
   <mx:Component>
      <mx:Button click="navigateToURL(new URLRequest(data.@pdf))"
icon="@Embed('/assets/icon_pdf.png')"/>
   </mx:Component>
</mx:itemRenderer>
</mx:DataGridColumn>
</mx:Array>
</mx:columns>
</mx:DataGrid>


ACTIONSCRIPT:
 public var productId:int;
 public var tipId:int;
 public var name:String;
 public var description:String;
 public var series:String;
 public var model:String;
 public var alloy:Boolean;
 public var carbide:Boolean;
 public var hss:Boolean;
 public var price:Number;
 public var image:String;
 public var plas:Number;
 public var wire:Number;
 public var a:Number;
 public var b:Number;
 public var c:Number;
 public var d:Number;
 public var e:Number;
 public var pdf:String;


XML:
 <tip tipId="1">
 <name>ITEMNAME</name>
 <description>ITEM DESCRIPTION</description>
 <series>ABC</series>
 <model>MODEL</model>
 <alloy>true</alloy>
 <carbide>false</carbide>
 <hss>false</hss>
 <price>00.00</price>
 <image>assets/pic/abc_button.gif</image>
 <plas>2</plas>
 <wire>0</wire>

 <b>7</b>
 <c>5</c>
 <d>7</d>
 <e>2.5</e>
 <pdf>assets/pdf/abc.pdf</pdf>
 </tip>

I can't figure out what I'm missing. Any help would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks.
