Rajanikant Hawaldar · Answer

Grid level not then try form level, In EditingControlShowing event you should subscribe keydown / keypress etc. Check below code it will work. private void dataGridView1_EditingControlShowing(object sender, DataGridViewEditingControlShowingEventArgs e) { if (e.Control is DataGridViewTextBoxEditingControl tb) { tb.KeyDown -= dataGridView1_KeyDown; tb.KeyDown += dataGridView1_KeyDown; } } //then in your keydown event handler, execute your code private void dataGridView1_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e) { if (e.KeyData == (Keys.Alt | Keys.S)) { //save data } }

Try this private void dataGridView1_EditingControlShowing( object sender, DataGridViewEditingControlShowingEventArgs e) { if (e.Control is DataGridViewTextBoxEditingControl) { DataGridViewTextBoxEditingControl tb = e.Control as DataGridViewTextBoxEditingControl; tb.PreviewKeyDown -= dataGridView1_PreviewKeyDown; tb.PreviewKeyDown += dataGridView1_PreviewKeyDown; } } void dataGridView1_PreviewKeyDown( object sender, PreviewKeyDownEventArgs e) { //your logic goes here }
