I've just noticed that DataGridView
s have a default shortcut so that whenever you press Ctrl + H, the DataGridView
's editing control backspaces, and can delete your entire selection within the cell.
This can get quite annoying since I want to open a Replace box whenever Ctrl + H is pressed. Is there any way to stop the backspacing while still being able to use it to open the replace box?
I'm running C# 2.0, but I could update my application to 3.5 if the newer C# has a solution.
This goes into your form code:
protected override bool ProcessCmdKey(ref Message msg, Keys keyData)
{
if (keyData == (Keys.Control | Keys.H))
{
//ShowReplaceDialog() or whatever it is you want to do here.
return true; //we handled the key
}
return base.ProcessCmdKey(ref msg, keyData); //we didn't handle it
}
