Vladimir,
Tab/ShiftTab in grid move between columns normally. Ctrl+Tab or Ctrl+Shift+Tab sets focus to next or prev. control. You could control it in form.keypress event w/o a need to add code to each column.textbox.keypress.

* Grid.when
thisform.keypreview = .t.
* Grid.valid
thisform.keypreview = .f.

*Form.keypress
LPARAMETERS nKeyCode, nShiftAltCtrl
if nKeyCode = 9 && Tab
  nodefault
  keyboard "{Ctrl+TAB}"
endif
if nKeyCode = 15 and nShiftAltCtrl = 1 && Backtab
  nodefault
  keyboard "{Ctrl+BACKTAB}"
endif

Also there is another way free from keypress event (if you would create a grid class). In ARCC check lastkey() (9 or 15) and setfocus() to another control other than grid.
