DatePicker Grid

I have a Radgrid with AllowKeyboardNavigatin="true"

When using the Keyboard arrows to move around the grid, if the arrow comes into a RadDatePicker, or even a System.DateTime datatype, the value changes by 1 month depending on if the up or down arrow was used to enter that cell.

1. The cell becomes dirty just by using the up / down arrow to go past them.

2. The cell actually changes value just by using the arrow to navigate past it.

Is there any work around or property I can set to keep this from happening but also allow use of the keyboard arrows?

** If you hold down the ctrl key along with the arrow key this DOES NOT happen. This could be a hard training topic for my users.

Hopefully there is another way to do this.

Thanks.

I found a property I can set on the DatePicker control to ignore arrow keys

DateInput-IncrementSettings-InterceptArrowKeys="false"

<telerik:RadDatePicker RenderMode="Lightweight" ID="ExpertDatePicker" MinDate="1/1/1970" runat="server" DateInput-IncrementSettings-InterceptArrowKeys="false" DbSelectedDate='<%# Bind("ExpertDate") %>'> </telerik:RadDatePicker>

This does indeed solve the issue.
