I was thinking the same thing. I think the critical distinction is that
datagrids are primarily display mechanisms, not really intended to be read
directly. It's much easier to parse the original input data than to try to
traverse the grid itself, which uses some tricks to appear as a continuous
single control.

I am a little lost here as to why this is a DG question as such.
Certainly being able to dynamically fill data within a row is a great UI
feature when the user is directly interacting with a row.
But it seems you wish to completely fill particular values in all the rows
from outside the DG.
In this case, why not operate directly on the DGdata, loop through the
array, fill in all the required values and then send the whole array back
to the DG?
