Using GridFilterbar with keyboard

[Bidin Dinesababu]

Hi,
I am facing a problem to use the filterbar wired with a databound grid using keyboard.
I have many controls in my form, one of which is a Data bound grid control, which has a filter bar. Tabing into the grid, gives focus to it and then I can use the arrow keys to navigate among the rows, except the filter bar.
I need to use the filtering option using the keyboard only and with out clicking the filterbar. Once I click on it and then arrow keys will help me to navigate across cells and F4 will bring up the popup and then RETURN key will help me selecting a filter option.
I need to do the same without clicking on the filter bar. Is there any option for that.

Any help is highly appreciated.
thanks in advance,
Bidin

Try handling the QueryNextCurrentCell event, and explicitly setting it there.

private void gridDataBoundGrid1_QueryNextCurrentCellPosition(object sender, GridQueryNextCurrentCellPositionEventArgs e)
{
	GridCurrentCell cc = this.gridDataBoundGrid1.CurrentCell;
	if(cc.RowIndex == this.gridDataBoundGrid1.TopRowIndex && e.Direction == GridDirectionType.Up)
	{
		cc.MoveTo(1, e.ColIndex);
		e.Handled = true;
		e.Result = true;
	}
}

Your solution worked perfect.

Thank you,
