I think I understood him to say he would build his own array and then populate 
using dgData. My personal preference, once I understood what datagrids did with 
arrays, is to always use arrays when I can. sqlYoga returns datagrid compatible 
arrays, so you can get a data set through a query, and then set the dgData of 
the datagrid directly. Very handy. 

However, if the initial population of the datagrid is underway, and your data 
is already delimited text, just use dgText and let the datagrid library handle 
building the array for you. After that you can work with row elements as needed 
by accessing the various datagrid array functions for doing that. 

Maybe I didn't understand the question though.
