How can I give all rows a specific value

[Mark]

I am new to Kendo, I have a dropdownList and on Change I would like to set all of the rows in the dropDownList to "Sold" . Right now I do have the change portion of the DropDownList working but can not seem to change the value of any rows . This is my code and I am trying to follow this  example here anyways this is my code below . I have about 12 rows and my field name is Names . I am also getting an error when I try to complete that below and it says Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'set' of undefined . Any suggestions on getting this resolved would be great . Again all I am trying to do is set all the rows below dropdownList with the field Names to John when someone changes value in the dropdown .

 

 <div id="MyGrid" style="text-align: center;"> </div>
function statusUpdate(element)
 {
element.element.kendoDropDownList({
 optionLabel: "-Select-",  dataTextField: "text",  dataValueField: "value",
 dataSource: [{ text: "Scott", value: "Scott" },{ text: "Sam", value: "Sam" }],
change: function (e) {

    var grid = $("#MyGrid").data("kendoGrid");
        var dataItem = grid.dataSource.get(2);
        dataItem.set("Names", "John");

    }
   })
}

Hi Mark,

The following Dojo sample shows how to use datasource data() method to iterate over all records inside DropDownList's change event. Thus, when the value of the DropDownList is changed, the "name" field for all Grid rows will be changed to "John".
