msflexgrid

Can somebody give an advise why keydown event of the grid does not work for arrow keys and PageUp, PageDown. How to make it work?

Annoying isn't it ? It's actually documented (somewhere) in the documentation / MSDN.

You can get around this in two ways (that I've found) -

- Place a textbox behind the Grid and use the keydown/press events there to capture the keystrokes (ie. set focus the the textbox when the grid get's focus)

- SubClass the control and capture the keystrokes yourself (quite a bit of work if I remember correctly).
