>>>>Thank's Einar, the problem is that the textbox of the datagrid column doesn't catch the keyup event.

>>>>>>I am trying to find the way to catch when user press enter key on a datagrid cell and perform a method inside the form, i am using a selector form wich contains a datagrid as that one of Les Pinter's book in which he uses a "select" button to select the record, i could catch double click event in the textbox of the column that contains the key field through an event handler which catch's double clik on that particular textbox i want to do the same pressing "enter" key.
