How to stop dataGridView from moving to next row on Enter while in editMode

Question

_{Tuesday, October 29, 2013 11:04 PM}

I can't seem to figure out how to keep the winForm dataGridView from moving to the next row after pressing Enter while in editMode. Actually after pressing Enter and committing my edit I'd like to keep the cell in focus AND in editMode!
 
Can someone please help me out here?
 
Thanks in advance,

Hi d.allen101,

You can customize the DataGridView to override the ProcessDialogKey method:

public class CustomGrid : DataGridView {            
        protected override bool ProcessDialogKey(Keys keyData) {
            if (keyData == Keys.Enter) {    
                EndEdit();
                return true;
            }
            return base.ProcessDialogKey(keyData);
        }
}

Or you can refer to the following article:How to prevent going to next row after editing a DataGridViewTextBoxColumn and pressing EnterKey?
