Hi Sam,
This may be possible to achieve based on the field editors that you have. If all columns in your Grid are strings and you have simple text editors, you can try the following:
1. When you capture the key press event and check what letter was pressed, save this letter in a variable that is accessible to the Grid event handler functions.
2. Add an
edit event handler to the Grid. When you call editCell to make the cell editable, this event will be raised jut before showing the cell content.
3. In the
edit event handler, you can search for the edited input and set its value to the letter that you previous saved:
If you have other editors like DatePickers or NumericTextBoxes, you will need to run additional checks to know what type of editor you need to be setting the current value to.
