How to get datagrid cell value while typing in it?

[James Roy]

Hi all,
I have a datagrid and one specific column is editable. I want while i am typing in one of the cells of this column when i press a Function key (Example F7) to get what i have write. Till now i get an empty string because the cell is empty for the datagrid cause the cellendedit has not fired. I tried the ProcessCmdKey event to catch the F7 and still i get the empty string. For example i write the word Marl in the cell and then i press F7. I want to get Marl. Is there a way to get this value?

Thanks.
