How to change enter key behavior in data grid view?

Greetings community
I have a simple problem. I have a table of several columns, and I want it to be editable without using a mouse. I want user to enter value in the first column, press enter key on keyboard, enter value in second column, press enter key,
and so on. I want data grid view to open another row only when all columns in the working row are populated. However, pressing the enter key causes opening new row whenever user presses the enter key.
I tried to set current cell of data grid view in CellValueChanged event , but it didn’t work. Actually, it really moves current cell where I want, but after that it moves it one row down.
I traced the execution of code, and counted CurrentCellChanged events to see what happens.
Does anyone know if there’s any way to suppress this behavior?
Thanks in advance

Hello,
It perhaps be better using Tab key which is exactly used for switch focus to the next cell instead of dealing with enter key.

  • How to handle 'ENTER' Key on ALV Editable Grid on sub screen (Tabstrips)

    Hello Experts ,
    I have 2 questions with ALV Editable grid;
    please help me if you have answers.
    I created ALV grid on one of sub screens on a Tab Strip,
    As soon as user types one of the columns of the ALV grid and press u2018ENTERu2019 key, it has to return corresponding details for that line.
    I tried to implement this logic in ALV grid event u2018handle_data_changedu2019, but ALV internal table is not getting populated with new entry entered in the grid. but u2018double_clicku2019 event working my purpose, but user might need enter key.
    and I thought I would do implement that logic in PAI event of the sub screen, u2018ENTERu2019 key not getting trigger on PAI event of the screen until cursor is on grid.
    Another question 2:  How do I control and not to be deleted a line on the grid (based on validation), where do I validate and by pass the delete function for a particular line, or suggest me to gray out only one line on the grid .
    I would like to have delete function to work as it is ,except for some validations..
    Can I implement using PAI event of the sub screen or any by ALV event.
    Please suggest me..

    In DATA_CHANGED event, you will get the modified row into the attribute MP_MOD_ROWS of the impoerting object ER_DATA_CHANGED. Since this MP_MOD_ROWS is the Object reference to Data, you need to have the field symbol to get the value.
      FIELD-SYMBOLS:  <lft_mod_output>  TYPE t_t_output.
      ASSIGN  er_data_changed->mp_mod_rows->* TO <lft_mod_output>.
    You can get the Value of the Cell by using the method GET_CELL_VALUE of the same ER_DATA_CHANGED object and use the method MODIFY_CELL To update the value back to ALV.
    To Restrict the row deletion:
    When the row is deleted it is being added to Attribute mt_deleted_rows of the object ER_DATA_CHANGED. You can put the data back to the table in the DATA_CHANGE_FINISHED event. Visit this post http://help-abap.blogspot.com/2008/10/alv-disable-delete-key-on-keyboard-in.html for more information.

    It is possible to perform key pressing more than a key in same time? Example, perform 'q' & 'w' keys pressing at the same time.With r.keyPress method, it only can perform single key pressed at a time. Do you have any idea how to perform multiple key pressed at a time?The javadoc for Robot.keyPress suggests ( "+The key should be released using the keyRelease method+" ) that the key remains "pressed" until you keyRelease(...) it. So, press the keys sequentially:
    theRobot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_Q);
    theRobot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_W);
    // At this stage both Q and W are pressed "in same time"
    ... // do stuff
    theRobot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_W);
    // At this stage, only Q is pressedI suspect that in real life, unless you're a very gifted musician, you don't really press keys "at the same time" (under the time resolution of a keyboard, which I imagine is around a few milliseconds).

  • FillBy always fills in the same row in data grid view. How to make it fill in a new row for each click of the Fillby Button? VB 2010 EXPRESS?

    Hi there, 
    I am a beginner in Visual Basic Express 2010. I have a Point of Sale program that uses DataGridView to display records from an external microsoft access
    database using the fillby query. 
    It works, but it repopulates the same row each time, but i want to be able to display multiple records at the same time, a new row should be filled for
    each click of the fillby button. 
    also I want to be able to delete any records if the customer suddenly decides to not buy an item after it has already been entered. 
    so actually 2 questions here: 
    1. how to populate a new row for each click of the fillby button 
    2. how to delete records from data grid view after an item has been entered 
    Thanks 
    Vishwas

    Hello,
    The FillBy method loads data according to what the results are from the SELECT statement, so if there is one row then you get one row in the DataGridView, have two rows then two rows show up.
    Some examples
    Form load populates our dataset with all data as it was defined with a plain SELECT statement. Button1 loads via a query I created after the fact to filter on a column, the next button adds a new row to the existing data. When adding a new row it is appended
    to the current data displayed and the primary key is a negative value but the new key is shown after pressing the save button on the BindingNavigator or there are other ways to get the new key by manually adding the row to the backend table bypassing the Adapter.
    The following article with code shows this but does not address adapters.
    Conceptually speaking the code in the second code block shows how to get the new key
    Public Class Form1
    Private Sub StudentsBindingNavigatorSaveItem_Click(
    sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles StudentsBindingNavigatorSaveItem.Click
    Me.Validate()
    Me.StudentsBindingSource.EndEdit()
    Me.TableAdapterManager.UpdateAll(Me.MyDataSet)
    End Sub
    Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
    'TODO: This line of code loads data into the 'MyDataSet.Students' table. You can move, or remove it, as needed.
    Me.StudentsTableAdapter.Fill(Me.MyDataSet.Students)
    End Sub
    Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
    Me.StudentsTableAdapter.FillBy(Me.MyDataSet.Students, ComboBox1.Text)
    End Sub
    Private Sub Button2_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
    Me.MyDataSet.Students.AddStudentsRow("Jane", "Adams", "Female")
    End Sub
    End Class
    Get new key taken from
    this article.
    Public Function AddNewRow(ByVal sender As Customer, ByRef Identfier As Integer) As Boolean
    Dim Success As Boolean = True
    Try
    Using cn As New OleDb.OleDbConnection With {.ConnectionString = Builder.ConnectionString}
    Using cmd As New OleDb.OleDbCommand With {.Connection = cn}
    cmd.CommandText = InsertStatement
    cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@CompanyName", sender.CompanyName)
    cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@ContactName", sender.ContactName)
    cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@ContactTitle", sender.ContactTitle)
    cn.Open()
    cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
    cmd.CommandText = "Select @@Identity"
    Identfier = CInt(cmd.ExecuteScalar)
    End Using
    End Using

    End Try
    Return Success

  • How do I change the the artwork size in grid view?

    How do I change the the artwork size in grid view?  I see that if you select view > view options when in artists it will give you a slider to adjust artwork size (although not by much) but there is no option to do this in Movies or TV shows... why couldn't they just keep the universal slider at the top of the page like before!?  I know they want it to look more like the iOS itunes but this isn't an iPad!!!  I have the screen space!!

  • ITunes 11 how can the window background colour be changed from white to black in Grid View?

    How do I change the window background colour ,in Grid View, from the new, default, white back to the good old, more easy on the eye, black?
    Apple did this to us in iPhoto some time ago and had to add a preference for shades of grey other than white. Why didn't Apple learn from this mistake?

    It is good to know I am not alone. The first thing I did after downloading iTunes 11 was go into preferences to change the background color. But alas, the option for a dark background is gone. I also was kind of disappointed in the lack of ability to resize the artwork, but not to the extent of some other commenters here.
    I will say this though. I love the way the albums expand with custom colored backgrounds based on each album's artwork colors. This looks fantastic. Still it would be nice to accomodate those who prefer to use a dark background for the overall application's theme.
    So, Apple, I join with my fellow users in requesting the return of resizable artwork, and the option for at least a dark (or an even further customizable) background color for the overall theme of the application. Thanks!
    Godspeed,

    Hello,
    It's not clear what the issue is, you could be more specific by sharing some screenshots and code.
    In addition, it will be more clear if you could separate the description into multiple sentences.
    Which control did you want to get help about? The checkbox or datagridview?
    If it is checkbox, did you want to keep checked or keep it uncheck?
    If it is datagridview, whether you are talking about checkbox column?

  • How to change chords & keys for loops?

    Hey, guys! I'm a total newbie, so I was hoping someone could give me "step-by-step" instructions for how to do this.... I am creating a song using one of the blue acoustic guitar loops in Logic Pro 9 & I have the option to "Play in" any chord/key imaginable when I am listening to the various loops... However, when I drag the loop over to the work area, it reverts back to the original key & I have no idea how to change it to the preferred key. I want to use this same loop throughout the song, but I need to be able to change the key several times in order to create my own chord progressions.... Any idea how I can make this happen? Thanks!!!!

    May I dare to tell you the magic four letters?
    But to give you a hint: learn how to configure global tracks, activate the chord track and look if you find the epic answer there

    Several one-to-one lessons fail to reveal how I can change loops key independent of other loops. Example, take a loop and loop it four times in one track, trying to make first loop E, second loop A, third loop B, fourth loop C. Seems when I change one, they all change to the new key. Anyone know how to create independent control over each segment?

    Hi,
    I've modified the Invoice Template through template management in Bill Presentment Architecture (BPA). I copied the default layout and made the format changes, added our company logo etc. The only thing that I'm unable to do is change the format of the date Content Items like Billing Date and Due Date (TERM_DUE_DATE). Does anybody know how I can do that.
    Thanks for your help
    -Asif

    Jassing,
    Thank you for the hint about preferences. I didn't think about that.
    The date formats are suppose to follow the format setup in personal preferences. But it turns out that there is a bug that just the 'Due Date' in BPA Invoice template is not following that. The other dates are displaying according to the format in preferences. So we'll be applying a patch to fix it. Hopefully that will fix it
