Datagrid | Prevent tabbing within columns and rows

Hi,

This is a very common issue. I have a read only Windows Application
datagrid, on which i want to prevent the tabbing between the columns and
rows.

What needs to happen is this:
When i hit tab and land on the grid, I have to scroll through the rows using
the up/dwon keys [DONE].
When I hit tab when I'm on the grid, i need to set the focus onto the next
available control.

I have tried using the datagrid.Select NextControl method, but it does not
seem to solve the problem. I also tried to capture the tab key on the grid
and then set focus on the next control, but somehow it does not get reflected
when i run my application.

Any pointers?

Cheers!
Nick

Hello, Does anyone know how you can prevent a row full of 'null' values from being added to the datagrid when a user hits the delete key, deleting the word (null) which represents the default value of 'null'? Here's a simple way to reproduce this problem: 1) Add a datagrid to a winform 2) Put this code into the Form1_Load event and run it.

I've been bothered for some time about my DataGrid not populating my rows very quickly. I have about 10K rows loading into the grid. I create a datatable dt with 2 columns, an ID and a display. The ID is a member of the keys array. I then create a DataView dv over the table, and sort it by Display and ID column (in case of duplicate Display). I then set my DataGrid.DataSource = dv; I then load the datatable with my rows, and this is...

I have a DataGrid web control which I've dynamically populated with template columns to be used for bulk-editting. Generally, all of the columns are textbox and/or dropdownlist child controls. Currently everything is working. I can find the updated rows/columns by parsing the posted data collection against the DataGrid DataSource. However, when there is a large amount of DataGridItems (rows) the update processing can take a while. ...

If I have a datagrid and the bound data file only have 4 rows in it, the grid will show the 4 rows. However, there is blank space below that until it reaches the bottom of the grid. Is there a way to have a fixed number of rows regardless of what data is in the bound table? Thanks, Aaron -- --- Aaron Smith

Hi I have a DataGrid with some hidden columns and also some read Only and some ComboBox Columns. Sandard Tabbing through the Datagrid sees the focus go to the hidden columns requiring further Tabbing to get to the desired column but it works fine stopping correctly on the ComboBox column. I have built a routine to test whether the use is Tabbing forward or back (Shift Tab) by looking at the last location, not by trapping the Keys. If

Hello, I'm sure this is simple to resolve but I can't seem to see the answer. I am using Visual Studio 2005 (VB). I created a local SQL database (using Visual Studio 2005) with a few related tables. On creating the Primary Key columns I was careful to set the Identity property to "Yes", seed = 1, increment = 1. I viewed the Table contents and added a few rows of data, the ID column incremented correctly and everything appears fine. ...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
