Passing data from child window to parent
I have a tableviewrow, i added a click event that opens a new window. When the new child window is closed, i would like to pass back to the parent tableviewrow a value. How can I do this? I see how to pass data from the parent tableviewrow to the child window it spawns, but now I need the data to go back from child to parent since it can be changed on the child window.

You will want to use events to pass back to the parent. This developer blog entry should help.
Basically the parent needs an event listener like:
Ti.App.addEventListener('myCustomEvent', function(event) { Ti.API.info('You sent me: '+event.myCustomEventValue); });The child needs to fire an event:
Ti.App.fireEvent('myCustomEvent', { myCustomEventValue: 'someValue' });
