This is all in 1 function ? It will never work. You need to get your
head around the event-driven paradigm. Make the datagrid a member of
the enclosing class. Instantiate the grid and hook up event listeners
when your class is created. Execute this everytime a grid row is
selected:
newTextArea.htmlText = newDG.selectedItem.answer;
