>I tried the DownArrow key - the problem is that this key is used for normal grid navigation. You would have activate the keytrap in very selective situations - or loose grid navigation.
So it seems to be impossible to use downarrow to add rows without
allowaddnew property. For this reason,
I continue to use for document rows
allowaddnew + down arrow + blanking record if user deletes last row in file.
>I think you received a reply about positioning to the 1st column - if you append blank with your addrow function - and do not move the record pointer - you should be automatically positioned at the 1st column - I think that is default grid behavior.
??? My document headers are represented in other grid.
I use the followin code for adding new document:
insert into DOC (.....) values ( .... )
however, this will not move to the column one: i will remain in the current column. If user cahnges column order in the grid,
thisform.grid1.column1.setfocus() does'nt also work.
