DataGridView editable combobox Left Right Arrow keys

When I have an editable combobox in a DataGridView and the user tries to
correct an error they can not move the cursor from character to character
with the arrow keys. The arrow keys move focus to the next cell. How can I
change this behavior when editing the value in a combo box in a DataGridView
control?

Hi, In recently recieved some excellent advice which ebnabled me to make a form behave as a spreadsheet with respect to the down and up arrow keys. To develop this further I would like the right and left arrow to move to the next or previous tab control. DoCmd.GotoRecord,,AcNext does the business for down, but nowhere can I find a 'docmd go to next tab' or words to that effect!!! Any ideas?

I've setup a custom combobox control that allows a multikey selections. This lets the user enter key presses and the combo scrolls to the matching selection. I run into a bug when the user opens the dropdown and enters a new character which the box auto scrolls to. The combobox displays the selected value but when I reference the text and selected value properties they still have the old values. Has anyone seen a problem like this...

I've looked high and low for some code that will allow me to have a combobox with a flat borderstyle. I found a few examples, but nothing that was really usable for me. I had the following criteria that I wanted to meet, but nothing did: - No reliance on a separate library - No unmanaged code - Easy subclassing of System.Windows.Forms.Combobox (i.e. no custom control monstrosity) - No extra funky features that I didn't need

Hi All: I would like to know if I can loop my selection in a combobox. For instance, I got 8 items in a combobox, and when I selected it using the up and down arrow, it will stop in the first record even I keep on press the up arrow, on the other hand, if it's the last selection, it will stop in the last record even I keep on press the down arrow. Is there any way that if I keep on press the up or down arrow, the slection in it will keep...

This is the 2nd time posting so sorry for duplications. I am using VB.NT 2005 & a standard Combobox. I've been wracking my brain over this problem for a over a month & cannot seem to find a way to trap the pressing of a Tab Key when the focus is in a Combobox. The KeyDown or KeyUp event for a combobox will not fire when the tab key is pressed. The Keyup event will fire when the Tab key is used to tab into the combo, however I want to trap...

I have combobox column in DataGridView. Up and down error keys should be used to navigate previous and next row in grid. For this I override them in ProcessCmdKey() event. When combobox dropdown menu is open arrow arrow keys should move to previous and next item in dropdown menu instead of moving betveen rows. How to check that combobox dropdown menu is open in ProcessCmdKey() ?

Marc, Thank you very much. I have issue on implementing add row properly using this. User presses down arrow in last row in grid starting adding new row. Then user changes its mind desiding that new row should not added and presses up arrow. DataGridView does not show this unfinished row anymore.

I'm trying to make a datagridview column to act like a datetimepicker column (C#.Net 2005). These are the behaviours that the dgv should have: 1) Initially all the cells of the dtp column should be blank unless they are filled by the user. 2) As soon as the user enters a cell, the dtp control should appear as the editing control of that cell. If there's a value in the cell beforehand, that value is set as the value of the dtp editing control...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
