Alternate Form of printKeys()

[Bob Sneidar]

Try this in a fresh datagrid with no data:

on populateDatagrid
    put "text1" into theDataA[1]["column1"]
    put "text2" into theDataA[1]["column2"]
    put "text3" into theDataA[2]["column1"]
    put "text4" into theDataA[2]["column2"]
    put "column1" into theColumns
    put "Column 1" into theLabels
    put 150 into theWidths
    set the dgProp["columns"] of group "Datagrid1" to theColumns -- I got this wrong in another email sorry
    set the dgProp["column labels"] of group "Datagrid1" to theLabels
    set the dgProp["column widths"] of group "Datagrid1" to theWidths
    set the dgData of group "Datagrid1" to theDataA
    put the dgText of group "Datagrid1" & cr & "-----" & cr & \
            printkeys(the dgData of group "Datagrid1")
end populateDatagrid

You should only see column 1 but printkeys should be showing you the entire array.
