From the APIDocs:

show(text:String = "", title:String = "", flags:uint = 0x4, parent:Sprite = null, closeHandler:Function = null, iconClass:Class = null, defaultButtonFlag:uint = 0x4):Alert [static] Static method that pops up the Alert control.

In a regular Alert.show call this means you can specify the last argument as Alert.YES to make it the default selection. With a custom component, you can call setFocus() on the particular element within your custom Alert component that you want to select (i.e.: in call setFocus() within the custom Alert component's creationComplete event).

So a sample implementation of a YES/NO Alert box would be (split code over two lines to avoid scroll bars):

Alert.show("sample text","sample title",
            Alert.YES|Alert.NO,null,null,null,Alert.YES);

Hope this helps.

you need to set the defaultButtonFlag: (its the last parameter)

Alert.show('alert', 'alert', Alert.NO|Alert.YES, this, null, null, Alert.NO);
