Combo box selected index is not working.

Question

Hi guys, I have a problem with changing the combo box selected index.
I load a list of phone types(such as "Home","Office",...) using Remote Object and assign it as a data provider for a combo box.What I need is to select a specific index in the combo but combo.selectedIndex statement doesn't work for the first time, I mean the combo changes its index only if I load the view again.
I checked different examples, solutions but none of them worked for me!! Can anyone here help me to figure out the problem?
Here is my Code:
<mx:Canvas creationComplete="init()"
             xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml">
     <mx:ComboBox id="comboPhone0"
                prompt="Type"
                dataProvider="{phoneTypeList}"
                />
<mx:Script>
     <![CDATA[
[Bindable]
private var phoneTypeList:ArrayCollection;
private function init():void
     loadPhoneType();
private function loadPhoneType():void
     phoneTypeLoaderService.getPhoneType(); //phoneTypeLoaderService is a remote Object to load the phone types
private function handlephoneTypeLoadResult(ev:ResultEvent):void
     phoneTypeList=ev.result as ArrayCollection;
        comboPhone.selectedIndex = getComboSelectedIndex("HOME");
private function getComboSelectedIndex(phoneType:String):int
var index : int= -1;
var result : int= -1;
     for each (var pt:PhoneType in phoneTypeList)
          if (pt.type == phoneType)
                    result = index;
                    break;
          else{
               index++;
          return result;
     ]]>
     </mx:Script>
</mx:Canvas>

hi
I think in getComboSelectedIndex() method index should initialized to zero. If that does not work use after assigning the data from result event.
phoneTypeList.refresh();
Hope this helps
