OK. I just found a section in the dg manual titled "Creating a Datagrid By Hand" that seems like it might provide the basis what I want to do. I'll give that a whirl.

Is there any way to force the creation of a new template when you copy and
paste a datagrid?  I have a "skeleton" datagrid set up with various
pre-defined custom properties, default column behavior pre-set, various other characteristics pre-defined and it would be great if I could copy and paste it as the basis for new datagrids and have it create a new template
each time.  I'm happy to write code to do this if necessary.


Not that I know of. The LiveCode IDE is in charge of what happens during a copy/paste operation so if you wanted to changed behavior you could submit
an enhancement request to RunRev.
