yes

For live checking the cells while in edit mode.

listen to cellEditKeyDown event
if evt.keyCode == "tab key" && column.require==true && $cell.value()==""
{
  evt.preventDefault();
  return false;
}



and for checking the whole data in grid.


loop through dataModel.data
and then loop through colModel

find the cells where rowData[dataIndx]=="" && column.required==true
{
  editCell http://paramquery.com/api#method-editCell
  break out of loop
}
