Your example-program doesn't show how to set the focus to the grid
Is it... different from the method used to set focus to every other window or control? :~ BTW - each article has a forum associated with it. That's the place for comments like this.

Set focus in this case is dificult for me, as i'm not a programmer but a commercial who's anly programming a few hours a week. And I hope it's obvious that I am thankful for Chris work and this message was only a question because I know, that others have the same problem. Hope, I didn't realy disturb anybody with this, Gerhard

It took you a week to solve the problem, and then you dumped it.

Right, i'm just saying -
::SetFocus()works for any window, and any control (with the exception of odd ducks like windowless controls). You learn it for a button, you use it for a list / grid / whatever. So the post struck me as odd - like driving from Minnesota into Iowa, and seeing a roadsign describing the process for breathing Iowa air. Eh, ignore me, i've been mixing cold medicine. Glad you're having fun. ;)----

:laugh::laugh: m_pGridCtrl->SetFocus() was one of my first attempts - but it didn't work.I needed the help of Jon A. Jonson with something like
void CMyView::OnSetFocus(CWnd* pOldWnd) { CView::OnSetFocus(pOldWnd); if (m_pGridCtrl && IsWindow(m_pGridCtrl->m_hWnd)) { m_pGridCtrl->SetFocus(); int x = m_pGridCtrl->GetFixedColumnCount(); int y = m_pGridCtrl->GetFixedRowCount(); m_pGridCtrl->SetFocusCell (y,x); m_pGridCtrl->EnsureVisible(y,x); } }And that's difficult for me:confused: -

It seems like such a waste of time to spend a week trying to solve the problem, and when you finally do, you decide to stop using the control.

Ah, so you're talking about setting focus to a cell within the grid. Figured there was probably more to it. :)

However you say to it - I want to be able to sctoll within the view with the keyboard. And that at first creation, when I change the window, when I made something like 'AfxMessage', after contextmenue and so on. This all is not possible with the example-code of Chris. But it would help beginners like me so much!!!! This was my suggestion to him - of course, I can do now and I could say, that's enough. But I think, this is a real problem for beginners:rose: Hope, I didn't affront anyone with my message (I see the 1.0-voting:-D)

Best to post in the forum attached to the Grid control. Unfortunately I have zero time to devote to the control these days, but there are many others who can help.
