Hi. Im replying to my own post coz Ive worked out something... I should pass the dataProvider fo the datagrid in my component from the main application (or some controller class). I guess this is the recommended way: That is. Supply any data for childcomponents from a main component.
Any suggestions or thoughts on this are welcome... Kr. Luke.
