Generating KeyPress in DataGridView control

[NayJo]

I am writing a .NET 2.0 Windows Form app that accepts either keyed or
scanned data via a barcode scanner via SerialPort into one column of a
DataGridView control.

The program handles scanned input just fine but I want to simulate a tab key
or an enter key being pressed so I can trigger the validating event.

How would I do this?

if(e.KeyValue==32)
{
if(dbgrdReports.CurrentCell.ColumnNumber==3)
{
