set focus in first cell of 'AddRow' in UltraGrid

mark posted over 16 years ago

Hi, I have been struggling with what I think should be a relatively simple task. I am trying to programmatically apply focus to the first cell in the ‘addrow’ of an empty UltraGrid with the following property set: THIS-OBJECT.ultraGrid1.DisplayLayout.Override.AllowAddNew = Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.AllowAddNew.FixedAddRowOnTop. I can make it work if the grid has some data in it, but when it is empty I have been playing with code like below with no luck:

ultraGrid1.PerformAction(Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.UltraGridAction.FirstCellInGrid).

ultraGrid1.PerformAction(Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.UltraGridAction.entereditmode).

And: ultraGrid1.ActiveRow = ultraGrid1.rows[0]. // trying to set ActiveRow to the AddRowOnTop… ultraGrid1.ActiveRow.cells["paymentType"].activate(). // paymentType is the name of the column Any guidance would be much appreciated.

in the Constructor method of the class. basically, i am starting out with an empty grid and want the user to populate it using the 'AddRowOnTop'. i want focus to be in the first field so they can just start typing without having to mouse click. i have been trying to figure out how to programmatically set ActiveRow = the AddRow with no luck. thanks for getting back to me on this.
