Need to populate array into datagrid

Hi Skip,

First, make sure your array uses the format required by the datagrid. It
should be a numeric-indexed array, where each key (index) represents a
DG row (line), with that key's subkeys representing the DG columns of
the row.

Then:
set the dgData of grp "my grid" to tMyDataA

That's it!

It might be helpful to manually put a couple of lines of values into a
DG and then do something like this so you can have a visual depiction of
how the array should be organized:

-- in a test button
on mouseUp
   put the dgData of grp "my grid" into tDataA
   breakpoint
end mouseUp
