I want to hook up a button that will move focus to the template add row and move the focus to the first cell to be edited so the user can type right away.

 If I use 

   TheGrid.Rows.TemplateAddRow.Activate();

The grid scrolls to the template add row, and the column indicators are changed to indicate that the user is now editing in the new reocrd.  But there is no cursor in any column.  i.e. the user can't type and still has to mouse click on a column before they can actually type something.

I tried the obvious, like activating a cell, but that is the same.  I tried selecting the contents of a cell, but that produced an error because its not in edit mode (or something like that).

thanks
