TAB key with DataGrid Control
What I need:
The Datagrid is 2nd in the Tab Sequence.
It seems that the cursor goes somewhere.
When I hit Tab again, the correct object is in the next sequence.
But, when the datagrid is supposed to have focus, I CAN'T see the cursor.
The datagrid is unbound.
I can mouse to the grid.
DataGrid2: settings
TabIndex2
TabStop = true
TabAction- = Have tried all
Any help?

Recommendation: When the .Gotfocus event fires on your grid, set highlighting on the current row. Your cursor will be visible then.

bhess1,
Set highlighting?
When I used the mouse cursor to the firstRow , firstCell. and then proceeded to use the tab key ,
When I cycled back around to the grid It then obtained focus.
However,
When I reached the last cell I got an error message.
"IRowOffset would position you past either end of the rowset, regardless of the cRows value specified; cRowsObtained is 0"
Thanks

When I add a record to the Datagrid(which is what I'am trying to do at this point) . How do I set focus to the row that has the * as indicating a new record?

The easiest way would be to trap that error you got (IRowOffset), and add a new row to the grid at that point (DBGrid1.Rows = dbGrid1.Rows+1), then set focus to the new row (DBGrid1.Row = DBGrid.Rows - 2 ' if * line displayed - if not, then use -1)

I have had success(but not complete) so far with the following:
Private Sub DataGrid2_GotFocus()
IF (DATAGRID1.SELBOOKMARKS.CO
DATAGRID2.SELBOOKMARKS.REM
END IF
IF ADODC3.RECORDSET.RECORDCOU
AND DATAGRID2.ROW = 0 THEN
IF ADODC3.RECORDSET.RECORDCOU
AND DATAGRID2.ROW = -1 THEN
Datagrid2.selBookmarks.add
END IF
END IF
END SUB
I still have to right arrow but, I'am getting there.
If could simulate a LeftMouse click AND a Left Arrow Keystroke in the datagrid in a cell, I could have it made.

Whoops! Datagrid (off MS Chart object), *NOT* DBGrid! Bad Brendt, BAD Brendt! :)
I'll take a look, though. Be back with any ideas...

bhess1,
I put a simple sendkeys "{right}"
In the got focus event.
This works o.k. for the first Tab around the form.
When it cycles back the cursor advances to the second cell.
This leads me to believe that after I use the right arrow the first time and then cycle back around the form THEN THE DATAGRID OBTAINS FOCUS WITHOUT CODE. "Yes" This is what happens.
So when I use code the Datagrid on the second cycle Tabing , gives Focus to the second cell because it is already advancing to the first cell automatically.
????????
Hope this makes sense.!

Tim,
Works o.k.
How about Datagrid1 AND Datagrid3 Where a new record ISNOT allowed?
Thanks for looking at this question!!!
