Set and get dgData and dgText delay

[Bob Sneidar]

DGText will only contain data for the columns you have defined in the Datagrid properties. If your dgData array keys have no matching columns it will still populate the dgData but dgText will return empty. This is why I avoid using dgText at all anymore.

I have also noticed that if one of the row arrays in the dgData is empty then that can bork the data grid. You have to set the dgData to empty to get rid of it.

I have seen this here and there for years, and having nothing to do with dataGrids per se.

A handler will fail to run, but will step through in the debugger without issue. This usually resolves, and I never know why.
