Problem with cell KeyDown event

I have this code in the onKeyDown event of the datagridview.

Code:

---

    Private Sub DataGridView1_KeyDown(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles DataGridView1.KeyDown
        Select Case e.KeyCode
            Case Keys.Return
                e.SuppressKeyPress = True
                SendKeys.Send("{TAB}")
        End Select
    End Sub

---

This works. When the Enter button is pressed, it acts as the TAB button.

The problem I am having is this only works if the datagridviewer is selected.
As soon as I enter data into a cell (A cell is selected) the code wont work as it is not set for the cell keyDown event. The event does not exist, so I have to somehow create it.

Does anyone know how to do this?

I'm a bit of a stickler for terminology so I will point out that there is no OnKeyDown event. There's an OnKeyDown method and a KeyDown event. Also, you can't have code in an event. The method that handles the event is not the event itself. So, to be precise, you have that code in the KeyDown event handler.

As for the question, I've already answered it in another thread of yours. Please don't create multiple threads for the same question.
