Ignore Chester. Not sure what his deal is, but dicts probably won't help 
this problem at all.

As to your original question, I'm not aware of an "easy" way to do it. 
If I were you, I'd probably loop through looking for whichever rows I 
want to swap and grab the information from those rows using the grid's 
methods:

oneName = myGrid.GetCellValue(row, col)
oneBirth = myGrid.GetCellValue(row, col)
....
secondName

(etc...)

And then use the SetCellValue() method. There's probably a way to do it 
with SQL too...

There may be a sorting method I am unaware of too, but that doesn't 
appear to be what you're looking for anyway.
