I forgot an important point in my earlier post. The DataSource of the grid is normally a bizobj. So setting up the bizobj will (or should) provide what is needed for your grid. If you can't - then it is possible to setup a special DataSource to retrieve the data. But from what you are describing I think just using a bizobj will work.
