How to handle KeyEvents in a DataGridViewCell?
DataGridViewCell
doesn’t have any events, but you can listen for the KeyDown
event on the DataGridView
itself and then look at which cell is selected:
public void dataGridView_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
{
if (e.KeyCode == Keys.F1)
{
var selectedCell = dataGridView.SelectedCells[0];
// do something with selectedCell...
}
}
I found this code in a forum, and it works.
private void dataGridView1_EditingControlShowing(object sender, DataGridViewEditingControlShowingEventArgs e)
{
DataGridViewTextBoxEditingControl tb = (DataGridViewTextBoxEditingControl)e.Control;
tb.KeyPress += new KeyPressEventHandler(dataGridViewTextBox_KeyPress);
e.Control.KeyPress += new KeyPressEventHandler(dataGridViewTextBox_KeyPress);
}
private void dataGridViewTextBox_KeyPress(object sender, KeyPressEventArgs e)
{
//when i press enter,bellow code never run?
if (e.KeyChar==(char)Keys.Enter)
{
MessageBox.Show("You press Enter");
}
}
