Customized Datagrid TAB order

[Pete]

The best I can think of is that the datagrid has a property named columns
which returns a list of column names, one per line, in the order they
appear.  The dgColumn property gives you the name of the current column so
you can locate that in the columns property and move to the next/prev column
in that list.  Depending on where your script is you could probably get the
long ID with something like "the long id of control the dgcolumn of me"
