handsontable propToCol returns property not column number

Question

I'm trying to use propToCol method in my handsontable grid. However, that method, which is supposed to return an integer is returning a string value of the property name instead if i try to alert the value of
#("grid").handsontable(propToCol ,prop);
How do I get the column number in such a case?

Ok so I found the problem and fixed the issue. I was using that method on a property that I was not displaying in the table(hidden property).So the propToCol method was not returning the column number.I put a check to ensure that that method is only applied to the properties i display in the handsontable grid.So it seems to work now.
