A DataGrid is not a spreadsheet

[Rick Harrison]

Hi Javier,

Your question prompted me to play with the data grid a little.
I don’t know what specifically you are trying to do, but I
do think you can do a lot with it.  You’ve already hooked it
into a database.  You may have to write some scripts to
get your database fields to update properly when the
user types something into the field.  My understanding
was that the data grid was supposed to be more
powerful than the table field.  I think you just need to
play with it some more to explore it’s full capabilities.

Cheers

Rick
