WPF: WPF Toolkit Datagrid. Capturing Key board events

[sameercodes]

How can we capture the Keypress event and the pressed key, on a WPF toolkit datagrid? I need to capture the F9 key, when the user is focussed on a particular column. Plus, can anybody suggest a good site to study the WPF toolkit datagrid? The basic CRUD operations need to be implemented. I am totally new to .NET 3.5. Thanks Folks!!!

I'm having a similar problem; I need to implement a double-click on the datagrid, while using MVVM. So I don't want to have any event handling code in the code-behind. Preferably binding to a command property in the VM. I've searched the internet all ower and still cannot find a suitable solution. Is there somehow a way (for me and sameercodes) to handle these keyboard and mouse events with behaviours or gestures AND bind to a command :confused: Thanks. :)

To learn about DataGrid, I suggest looking at "WPF DataGrid Practical Examples" [^]. To respond to the F9 key I expect you can use the KeyDown event, but I have not tried this. To handle such events in a MVVM pattern - that is tricky and not something I have solved. So far I have taken the easy path and simply used codebehind. I suspect the answer might be in "WPF : If Heineken did MVVM Frameworks Part 2 of n" [^] - View Lifecycle Events - but I have not yet properly followed this or tried it. I hope that might be helpful.
