Handling Keypress Or KeyDown Events

[nolc]

Has anyone worked with Keypress and/or KeyDown Events? I'm trying to use these events with a DataGrid. I would like to arrow up/down until I get to the row I want and select the row by using one of the above events. BUT I'm having trouble!

It's seems like you only can use the KeyDown Event when you have the whole row selected and not just one cell in a row. SO to avoid this problem I tried a DataGrid.LocationChange event to select the whole row when arrowing down or up. I figured you could just get the Current Row by getting the row via CurrentRowIndex or CurrentCell and then doing a DataGrid.Select(CurrentRow) when changing the Location....but I can't get it to work...any suggestions?

That's not exactly what you need, but might guide you in the right direction (handling keypress for combobox):

Protected Overrides Function ProcessDialogKey(ByVal keyData As System.Windows.Forms.Keys) As Boolean
If cmbConstW.Focused Or cmbConstH.Focused Then
Select Case keyData
Case Keys.D0, Keys.D1, Keys.D2, Keys.D3, Keys.D4, Keys.D5, Keys.D6, Keys.D7, Keys.D8, Keys.D9, Keys.Delete, Keys.Back, Keys.Divide, 191 'accept digits only
Return False
Case Else
Return True
End Select
Else
Return MyBase.ProcessDialogKey(keyData)
End If
End Function


Can't do better (maybe, that's not even what you need) - very busy lately.
Good luck.
