Use an ArrayCollection as your dataProvider and assign a filtering function to its filterFunction property :

var provider:ArrayCollection;

At the part where you instantiate your array, give it a filterFunction :

provider.filterFunction = myFilteringFunction;

With the code of the filterFunction like this :

private function myFilteringFunction(item:ObjectTypeInYourArray) : Boolean {

        var show:Boolean;
        if(item.completed == checkBox1.checked && 
           item.onHold == checkBox2.checked){
                show = true;
        }

        return show;   
}

It's an example with two checkboxes. The type of value assigned to the completed and onHold attributes of your object may not be boolean so you'll have to convert them somehow before comparing them to the state of the checkboxes but I think you get the idea.

Basically the filterFunction that you pass to your arraycollection is applied to each of the items inside and return true or false depending on you code inside (e.g check if the object has the right values for its properties). When true the values are showed

At the change events of your checkboxes, you refresh the dataProvider :

provider.refresh();

Hope that helps
