DataGridView KeyDown/KeyPress To Return New Cell Value?
Apr 15, 2012
how to handle the keypress event but I can't find a way to update the datagridview cell with the new contents of the editing textbox control. If I add a character to a the text of a cell I want it to react with the new cell contents.

I'm using an on key down event for my datagridviewer that fires every time a key is pressed while the datagridviewer is selected(Focused).I want the same thing to happen while in a cell, but there is no event for key down in a cell.
i have a datagridview with a readonly cell, i would like to show a formdialog window when the user press the space key. but is not possible since the cell is readonly=true.
i'v been using the following code with the EditingControlShowing event. and when the cell is readonly=false it works sometimes.
Private Sub sub_fecha_keydown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As KeyEventArgs) If e.KeyCode = Keys.Space Then Dim frm As New frmFecha
I'm currently experimenting with a tile based dungeon crawler type game. When the WASD keys are pressed it will move in that direction, however if the key is held down it will move incredibly fast over the tiles, which is not what I want.Instead I want the player only to be able to move one tile at a time, or after each key press. Is there any way to do this with the KeyDown event or do I have to use KeyPress to make sure it only activates after each full key down & up?
using a datagridview and it bind by 3 rows and 3 columns,my task is when the press the F5 key then need to execute some code, my problem is if the datagridview cell is focused then now i press F5 key then the next task is executed but if the cursor is in the cell and i press F5 Key then the Key events was fired
In the application I'm working on I use F1 and also a right mouse click to close the application since the graphics display full screen and there's no control in the upper right corner to close with. I use a good number of different keypresses to control things and everything works fine. When I switch away from the form that the applications starts in to a different form I'm not getting any response from either a KeyDown or a KeyPress event. Maybe someone knows what's going on. The ButtonClick and MouseDown events are responding just fine but for some reason the KeyDown and KeyPress events aren't. Below is code for one of the Forms that is unresponsive in this way. [code]...
I'm using VB.NET (2008) and .NET framework 3.5. In my application I've got an on screen button that, when pressed, sends "00" as the characters [via SendKeys.Send("00")]. I also have a keyboard that has a '00' key that sends "00", two zeros, when pressed. I'm picking up the keypress using the form's KeyDown event - it fires twice, once for each "0" and works whether the on-screen or keyboard '00' is pressed. There's also a singe '0' on-screen button and key on the keyboard that sends "0".
I want to be able to treat the "00" as a single event. I.E. in the KeyDown handler, if the character is a single zero "0", I would like to check the next character to see if it is also a zero "0". If it is then I can handle it appropriately, but also need to remove it (from the keyboard buffer?) so that it doesn't fire the second KeyDown event. If it's not a zero then it should be left to fire the next event in the normal fashion.
How do I trigger a sub after the user hits the Return key within a cell in a specific column in a DataGridView. I know its columnIndex 1 that I care about. I want the sub to fire when the user is editing (i.e. DataGridView1.CurrentCell.IsInEditMode = True).
I have a TextBox which Is allowed only to read certain characters. I use KeyPress event to handle this event. I understand that The KeyPress event does not handle the pressing of the DELETE key on the keyboard. I do not want the user to be able to delete characters in the txtbox by using the DELETE key, I want the user only to be able to use the backspace key. I am writing this code in Visual Basic 2005. The following code appears to work in handling the DELETE key, but I am concerned that I might get bitten by the fact that I am using KeyDown and KeyPress on the same control (txtSource).
private sub txtSource_KeyDown(byval sender as object, byval e as KeyEventArgs) handles txtSource.KeyDown IF e.KeyData = System.Windows.Forms.Keys.Delete then e.handled=true end if end sub
I am using KeyboardCallback to log my keyboard events.How can I get keydown screen coordinates as well, Is it possible ?? I can able to capture mouse screen coordinates but I want keydown screen coordinates.For your reference I have written procedure here...
Private Function KeyboardCallback(ByVal Code As Integer, ByVal wParam As Integer, ByRef lParam As KBDLLHOOKSTRUCT) As Integer If CBool(GetAsyncKeyState(Keys.Menu) And &H8000) Then 'Alt key pressed KeyData = KeyData Or Keys.Alt
Looked up a number of pages on KeyDown, and KeyPress events, and am just more confused than when I started. I am trying to get an event to fire adding value to a total when a user presses the Enter key. Not getting any compiler errors, and have tried utilizina MSDN's suggestions for IsInput, and PreviewKeydown. None are working..... I have tried working in the KeyDown using e.keyCode = Keys.Enter, and KeyPress using e.keyChar.Equals(Keys.Enter) in my conditionals.
Protected Overrides Function IsInputKey(ByVal keyData As System.Windows.Forms.Keys)
Private sub Combobox1_Keydown(....yaddda) handles combobox1.keydown if e.keycode = keys.enter then msgbox(combobox1.text) end if end sub
this always displays an empty message box,I need the value of the combo box before the enter was pressed, apparently the enter key empties the combobox1.text.
i've made form with DGV... when user selects or enters a cell and presses F1 a help form pops up.... but when the cell is in edit mode and presses F1 .... nothing is happening ... is there any way to handle keydown in cell while is in edit mode ..
Have this code so that when a checkbox in a column of my datagridview is checked, then the corresponding cell in column 2 (of the same row the check box is in) will turn blue with font color white.
[code]...
I'd also like to add a line so that as well as the cell going blue, the bottom border of the cell disappears, so cellborderstyle = none.
I have a DataGridView with several columns. One column is a TextBox column named "Status". This column can only show one of three values: 'Final', 'Ready', or 'No Reportable'. I want to have some code that would turn the TextBox cell into a ComboBox cell when the user left-clicks on the cell to allow the user to choose one of these three options. When the user clicks elsewhere or the cell loses focus I want the cell to change back to a TextBox cell.
Here is what I have so far, but the code throws an exception indicated below Plus, I don't think the code would remove the combobox when the cell loses focus.
Exception: "Provided cell does not belong to this DataGridView control."
Private Sub dgvCalculatedResults_MouseDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles dgvCalculatedResults.MouseDown Dim ht As DataGridView.HitTestInfo = Me.dgvCalculatedResults.HitTest(e.X, e.Y)
I have this code in the onKeyDown event of the datagridview.
Private Sub DataGridView1_KeyDown(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles DataGridView1.KeyDown Select Case e.KeyCode[code]....
This works. When the Enter button is pressed, it acts as the TAB button.The problem I am having is this only works if the datagridviewer is selected.As soon as I enter data into a cell (A cell is selected) the code wont work as it is not set for the cell keyDown event. The event does not exist, so I have to somehow create it.
i am using the following logic to capture the keypress event in a dataGridView so that I can edit numeric cells but cannot capture decimal value in my code i cannot pass the digit.
I have a datagridview bound to an Access datatable. It is nothing more than a one column list of chemicals. To allow the user to more easily navigate the list, if they press a letter it will jump to the first chemical alphabetically of that letter. If they keep tapping that same letter it will move down that list one by one. This all works fine. The problem is if you hold down the letter it will progress down the list but it doesn't show that progression. I want it to function much like if you hold down the down arrow key in a datable you'll see each successive cell be selected as it goes down the column.
In cellEndEdit event I need current cell editedFormatedvalue ( well it is done) now my question is can we get the old value of the cell in this event or have to handle some other event for this means let I have a cell in which current value is abc and when I edit it it become def now I want to get both the values in cell end edit event ( or any else ) but finally I have to perform task on cellendedit
I have a datagridview and it has 8 columns as textboxcolumns. I am handling their cell validation with cellValidating event.
My question is that if cell validation fails for 3rd column of the datagridview then the focus should move from 3rd column to 1st column of the datagridview. How can i do this?
I have tried datagridview.column(0).selected = true, when validation for 3rd column fails, but this is not working. Focus still moves to the next cell. I can stop the focus to the current cell with e.cancel=true but i want it to move to the very first cell of the datagridview.

I need to select multiple random rows in DatagridView with keypress.Ex:
Row1 -selected Row2 -not selected Row3 - selected
I do have part of code that will update certain field in database on keypress, but i have no idea how to create multiple selection and display it on DataGrid.CTRL+Click is nice, but I would like to have option of selecting rows with keypress.In following code I am checking if certain field is marked for selection(i want to give user an option to start selection, exit program then continue selection later) but it allways select all rows in table (even if only one is marked).
Dim NumRow As Integer NumRow = 0 Do Until NumRow = dbtShow.RowCount - 1
[code]....
My question is: What is the best way to select multiple random rows in code?
Some codes here on how could I validate my datagridview? I mean, a certain column on my datagridview should accept integers only, otherwise, it will return a messagebox. Kindly include on which event it should be posted.
