How to prevent cursor skips from one cell to another in VB.net datagrid?

[Amoi]

Hi all,

I have designed a datagrid in VB.net to show,modify,add and delete records from a table. Now I want to validate user's input before the cursor skips to next cell or next row. If validation fails, the cursor should stay where it was. I tried table's columnChanging/RowChanging event. But I couldn't find how to prevent the cursor from jumping to next cell or row. Could anyone help?

thx.

Hi There
I have a similar problem
I have datagrids that I am using, that has not been specified with databinding from the datagrid properties.
See the code below.....

My pain is that I need to generate messages for data entry errors, for
1. Compulsory Columns
2. Range Checks

Can anyone help PLEASE?

Private Sub CreateGrid()
        Dim tsSeats As New DataGridTableStyle
        tsSeats.MappingName = "Seats"
        Dim dtSeats As DataTable = DsSeats1.Tables("Seats")
        Dim i As Integer
 
        While i < dtSeats.Columns.Count
 
            Dim txtCol As New DataGridTextBoxColumn
            With txtCol
                .MappingName = dtSeats.Columns(i).ColumnName
                .HeaderText = dtSeats.Columns(i).ColumnName
 
                If i = 0 Then
                    .Width = 70
                    .ReadOnly = True
                Else
                    .Width = 100
                End If
                tsSeats.GridColumnStyles.Add(txtCol)
            End With
 
 
            i = i + 1
 
        End While
        dgSeats.TableStyles.Clear()
        dgSeats.TableStyles.Add(tsSeats)
        dgSeats.DataSource = dtSeats
    End Sub
