I'm using a DataGrid object to diplay data in a table. Is there a way to allow multiple cell selection with DataGrid? I've seen it's posible with AdvancedDataGrid but I want to keep this as a last resort solution to my problem.

Thanks.

I think you're out of luck; as the MX DataGrid doesn't support multiple cell selection--although you can select multiple rows with the allowMultipleSelection property. I thought it was possible to do column selection with the Spark DataGrid if you can upgrade your SDK. – JeffryHouser

Try setting allowMultipleSelection to true. Please note that in order to select multiple rows you need to hold down the control key.
