I just tried populating the DataGrid from the Message Box while the current card was card "Help". Result: the DataGrid was populated. But issuing the script from the Message Box while the card "Help" was not focused (from a different card), returned an error message: no such object.
So I guess the question is: can you populate a DataGrid on a card while not on that card? Doesn't seem to work for me. Anybody got a work around for this?
