Dear all,

I am sure someone already fixed this problem. Sorry for asking again! Scenario: I have a datagrid with several rows and 5 columns. All columns are read only except for column # 4. When the user is positioned at row 0 and column 4 ; I was able to pragmatically move focus to next row column 4, only when the user enters "ENTER key".  When the user enters the "TAB" key it moves to same row and column 5. It would not obey my new current cell = next row and column 4.

Can you help?  This is urgent....thanks

George

Hi Daniele,

Thank you so much for your answer. I have had many problems trying to use DataGrid for data entry. This case is really simple; several rows with 5 columns. All columns are read only except for one. All I need is that when the user enters any key "enter", "tab", "key down" that the focus goes to the next row to the only column that is NO read, ready for entering and editing new data. Very simple and tribial functionality that I have used with other technologies.

I will test your suggestion. In the mean time if you have any ideas of how to accomplish the above functionality I would appreciate your input a lot!

Kind regards,

George

Hi George,

Welcome to Visual WebGui

I see that Daniele already stepped in for help here, thanks Daniele.

Daniele has recently gone through similar DataGridView navigational scenario and you can find some code fragments within threads here and here. In addition to what Daniele already told you, you should pay attention to the usage of the SetFocused method, as some browsers may loose the focus if you are both setting focus to a cell as well as updating something within the control.

More info on DataGridView can be found here.

Hope thls helps,

Palli
