Focus 1st Row in RadGrid

[GOPI S]

Hi,
I am using Radgridview which is placed inside the childwindow ,so whenever the window is opened the 1st record in the gridview should be active(ie focus and default selection should be on 1st row of GridView )

so that if i am pressing down arrow the next record should be highlighted ,I should not use mouse to select the record

please help me in this ,the default selection and focus should be set on 1st of GridView

Hello GOPI S,

You may set the IsSynchronizedWithCurrentItem property of the grid to "True".

Hi Thanks ,
But i think my problem is different

I am having one gridview in child window which is also having textbox at the top ,when i am opening the child window the focus has been set for gridview ,so when i am pressing tab key the 1st row of the grid view is getting focused ,once it get focused when i am pressing down arrow the next record is get highlighted .

But for me instead of setting focus on Grid view and pressing tab to highlight 1st Row ,I need to set focus directly on 1st row,I should not use Tab for moving to Rows ...


I think i am clear now

Thanks In advance

Hi GOPI S,

As you have a TextBox as well, you will have to set the focus explicitly to the RadGridView. You may refer to the sample project attached for a reference.

Hi GOPI S,

May you provide a bit more details ? What do you mean by "not working fine" ? Do you get any exceptions ?

All the best,

Hi GOPI S,

Is it not appropriate for you to call the Focus() method for the grid as demonstrated in the sample project ?
