Display field from ArrayCollection in Text field

i want display welcome message logged in user, cannot work. pulling name arraycollection working datagrid on same page (as test).

here datagrid code:
<mx:datagrid dataprovider="{qinfo}">
<mx:columns>
<mx:datagridcolumn headertext="name" datafield="firstname"/>
</mx:columns>
</mx:datagrid>

here text code:

<mx:text text="you logged in {qinfo.firstname}"/>

flex throws standard 1119 error - tried bunch of different ways of doing this, none work.

what missing here?

qinfo collection of objects have firstname. qinfo object not. datagrid extracting firstname property each element.

you {qinfo.getitemat(0).firstname}. if you're not sure have item you'll need put checking around that.
