See the community article that talks about creating an AEM component that uses a CQ.Ext.grid.GridPanel. See: http://helpx.adobe.com/experience-manager/using/creating-custom-cq-component-uses.html.

What are you looking to do? We have discussions on using JQuery grids to display data. Or are you looking for a walk through that will guide you on how to use this xtype to pull in data and display the data in the grid xtype in a component dialog?

Basically I need the author to enter tabular data for display on the page.SO using an xtype like editorgrid seems like what I need.

I want to store the data in CQ as either JSON or XML and then be able to retrieve it using propertes.get and have some code to process the JSON or XML.

The code would then use other properties to work out how many rows should be in the thead and tbody in the outputted table.

Thanks in advance

I am not aware of a community article that talks about this use case. However - this sounds like a good use case on which to base a community article. I will add this to our list. 

In the meantime - i will look for something to help you. I hope another community member can point you to some code as well.
