Hi,
I'm using the DataGridViewTextBoxColumn and I'm trying to find a way to
detect when the a key is pressed whilst it is being edited. But there
doesn't appear to be any events for this..

So I was wondering if anybody had written any custom columns to catch these
events.

Thanks

Wayne
 
Hi Wayne,

if you use a DataTable as DataSource you
could register the ColumnChanging event. You will
recieve than a DataColumnChangeEventArgs object
over his properties Column and Row you can get
all information.

Hope that helps ;)

Click to expand...

For example this is simply possible if you override the event for the
TextBox of the derived DataGridTextBoxColumn in the constructor:

public MyTextBoxColumn() //derived from DataGridTextBoxColumn
{ this.TextBox.KeyDown += new KeyEventHandler(TextBox_KeyDown);
} // ... and the Handler accordingly
