Hello Amiel;
I think I understand your question; you have a component in which
you want the action to be fired on the parent component? Try to use
the "^" as in;
^goDelete
This will invoke the method "goDelete" in the parent component.
The problem here is that components are inserted into AjaxGrid cells
via WOSwitchComponent and the only bindings are:
ColumnValue: WOSwitchComponent {
WOComponentName = columnComponentName;
value = columnValue;
grid = thisComponent;
}
This situations requires a little trickery or a different design.
grid.parent should return the component that holds the grid. So you
can do grid().parent().performActionNamed("foo"), but it if breaks you
get to keep the pieces. :-)

cheers.
The reason I asked this is that I wanted to embed the CRUD
component to one of the cells in an AjaxGrid. and needed the
"Delete" and "Update" action to be fired in the parent component of
the AjaxGrid instead of the CRUD component. So the CRUD can be
reusable.
