Him Tom, as long as your item renderer implements the IDropInListItemRenderer interface you can get the columnIndex and rowIndex from the listData property. If an item renderer lives inside a DataGrid, listData is of type mx.controls.dataGridClasses.DataGridListData - so everything should be there already.
