I have a GridViewDataColumn where I can enter text in the cell, but behavior for the text entered, like:
1. Selecting text using Shift + Left/Right arrows,
2. Hold down Left/Right arrow, the cursor should move continuously until the key is released,
3. Similarly for Shift + Shift + Left/Right arrows,
 does not work.

I want to know what events need to be handled to get the above behavior?

Hi,

As I understand you edit a cell and you would like to have the three listed functionalities working. Please note the default editor of the GridViewDataColumn for String properties is a standart TextBox. You will need to modify its behaviour as per your requirements. You can also predefine the CellEditTemplate and place what editor you would like to.
