Check out this page which has properties you can access in a cell:

http://lessons.runrev.com/s/lessons/m/datagrid/l/7345-template-custom-properties-messages

When the mouse is clicked you can check and see if the dgColumn of the
dgDataControl of the target has a value. Combine that with the dgLine of
the dgDataControl of the target and you get your row and column reference.
