It would be interesting to know what vTheList contained at the time of the 
error. Also, (and I know it sounds too simple) but are you sure the name of the 
data grid has not changed? 

Now the line you show below would be one you would execute outside the datagrid 
itself. If this is something inside the datagrid, you should use the form "of 
me" (assuming it's in the datagrid behavior script). Not saying that is the 
problem, but I would start looking at the simple things.
