DataGridViewEditMode Enumeration
Specifies how a user starts cell editing in the DataGridView control.
Assembly: System.Windows.Forms (in System.Windows.Forms.dll)
| Member name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| EditOnEnter | Editing begins when the cell receives focus. This mode is useful when pressing the TAB key to enter values across a row, or when pressing the ENTER key to enter values down a column. | |
| EditOnF2 | Editing begins when F2 is pressed while the cell has focus. This mode places the selection point at the end of the cell contents. | |
| EditOnKeystroke | Editing begins when any alphanumeric key is pressed while the cell has focus. | |
| EditOnKeystrokeOrF2 | Editing begins when any alphanumeric key or F2 is pressed while the cell has focus. | |
| EditProgrammatically | Editing begins only when the BeginEdit method is called. |
This enumeration is used by the EditMode property of the DataGridView control.
All DataGridViewEditMode values except for EditProgrammatically allow a user to double-click a cell to begin editing it.
The following code example illustrates the use of this type. For more information, see How to: Specify the Edit Mode for the Windows Forms DataGridView Control.
