Here's one way to do this,there may be others. Both datagrids will have the dgProps["row template"] property set to the same group and card of the Datagrid Templates stack. Locate that card and use the message box to make a copy of it in the Datagrid Templates stack. Make a note of the Row Template group ID and card id of the new card, then change the dgProps["Row Template"] property of the second datagrid to refer to the new group/card. At that point, you can modify the second datagrid's template as you wish without affecting the first datagrid.
