call validate routine

I have a situation where the cell text is being filled in programmatically, not with keystrokes and so the validate routine does not get called.

How can I trigger the

obj.onCellValidating = function(text, column, row){ . . . }

routine?

eric/alex,

I'm be interested something similar or a way to programmatically initiate the equivalent of pressing the enter key.

Eric,

possibly I am missing something - why can't you just call the method directly -

obj.onCellValidating(text, col, row); // ???
