I like dgProps["control type"] too. I was unaware of it.

Hi Todd,
If your code might go out into the wild, I think the dgProps["control
type"] property I mentioned might be slightly safer than using the
dgcontrol property, just because it's highly unlikely anyone would have a
dgProps custom property set outside of a datagrid whereas it's not
inconceivable that might have dgcontrol property in the default custom keys
property set.

In this case I am making a Palette that pops up when groups are selected.
I need to rule out groups that are inappropriate for the palette. The data
grid is one such group. Since this code may make it into the wild someday
I can't rely on other people naming conventions to make this work.
While I applaud naming conventions for making things easier to read and
understand, I don't use them for logic. I think it introduces unnecessary
fragility, even if it is just for your own code.

I name all my datagrids starting with "dg", as I name fields with "fld",
labels with "lbl" buttons with "btn" etc. It's been discussed before,
but a
consistent naming convention comes in real handy at times, and makes
sorting by kind in a list of objects possible.
