How should you diagnose the error SEHException – External component has thrown an exception

Yes. This error is a structured exception that wasn’t mapped into a .NET error. It’s probably your DataGrid mapping throwing a native exception that was uncaught.

You can tell what exception is occurring by looking at the ExternalException.ErrorCode property. I’d check your stack trace, and if it’s tied to the DevExpress grid, report the problem to them.
