Setting Cursor Position in Cell

I have a maskedit cell to format a phone number in a grid (''(999) 999-9999). When I click in the phone column my cursor position is set to the spot I click. Also, if a user tabs to the cell, I want focus after the first paren. I tried using currentcellactivated then setting the position using: Me.grdPhone.ActivateCurrentCellBehavior = GridCellActivateAction.PositionCaret = 1

But it either never lets me leave position 1 or otherwise locks up the cell (can''t tell).

Thanks!

Hi Tom,

You could do this by handling the GotFocus Event of the GridMaskedEditBox control. Please refer to attached sample, that helps you to set the cursor at first position.

Here is a sample.

Let me know if this helps.
