Hello,

I'm used to using keyboard shortcuts, and I was wondering if it was possible for NextGrid to select the content of a cell automatically when the user enters edit mode, so as to avoid either deleting/writing or selecting/overwriting data:

IOW, I click on a cell, hit F2 to enter edit mode, hit SHIFT-Home to select the content of the cell, then overwrite the content just by typing, and hit ENTER to validate and exit edit mode.

Can NextGrid save me the SHIFT-Home step, ie. select the whole text right after entering edit mode?

Thank you.

Hello Fred,

Set flag coEditorAutoSelect to True in Options property of Column.

I hope that this will help.
