Message Definitions

Just in case you're new here, Messages are LiveCode's equivalent of Events.
So I've got this DataGrid and I need to write some code for a Message?
Where are all the messages for the DataGride listed? Found it!
Right click on the DataGrid and look for an option called,
"Send Message". There they all are. Looks like there's about 100.
Question: Is there someplace where all the actions associated with
these Messages are are defined in detail? That would be helpful.
I'm trying to generate an event after a cell has been edited. I thought it
might be "closefield" or "exitfield" but neither of these worked.
Also: You would think that when clicking on a Message from the
Send Message list, it would populate the code with a simple stub like:
But that didn't happen. It seems you have to enter the On...End structure
manually. No matter. But then... what does happen when you select a
Message off the Send Message list?
