It sounds like the Categoris information is in an object nested within the Items object. If so, you will need to us a labelFunction. You can only define a datField if the data is in a top level property of the item object.

For the first column, I specified the dataField as "code" and it shows item code correctly. Quetsion is, how do I specify categories.code as the dataField for second column in the grid? - If I check the data for myRecArray, I do see correct categories for each item e.g. myRecArray[0].categories.code - I tried specifying the dataFields as "categories.code" but this doesn't show any data
