to maintain cursor in cell

[swaminath dhavane]

hi,
i am using grid grouping control and opening lookup when i try to type in cell.when i select a value and insert in cell.Black square bracket remains at boundary of that cell.But tablecontrol_currentcellkeyPressed event is not fired when i try to type in cell .So i want to know , which function should i use so that cursor should remain in cell.

Hi Swaminath,

This is a default behavior when the dropdownstyle is set to Exclusive. You can try changing the dropdownstyle for the comboboxcells in the grid to AutoComplete or Editable. This will fetch you the desired behavior. Below is a code snippet

this.gridGroupingControl1.TableDescriptor.Columns[0].Appearance.AnyRecordFieldCell.DropDownStyle = GridDropDownStyle.Editable;

Best regards,

Hi Swaminath,

You can try calling the BeginEdit method to enter the edit mode in a grid after updating the currrentcell. Please try these code and let me know if this helps.

this.grid.Focus();
this.grid.CurrentCell.MoveTo(row,col);
this.grid.CurrentCell.BeginEdit();
