Hello all,
I was wondering whether or not the WebGrid or WebDataGrid support keyboard navigation for horizontal scrolling. I'm trying to do a comparison of grids and I have found this feature is not as common as I had though.

When you say Horizontal Scrolling do you mean the ability to use the left and right arrow keys to make the contents of the grid scroll?
The UltraWebGrid definitely allows you to use the arrow keys to move left and right around the grid, selecting the cell as you go. If the cell you select isn't currently visible, such the cell being out of view to the right, when you press the right arrow key, the grid will scroll left so that the newly selected cell is visible...
That's great to hear, actually. However, I was actually wondering if either of Infragistics' grid had the capability to tab between cells like in Excel to get the grid to scroll. My clients want to mimic excel functionality, and obviously this is key.
Thanks for any information!
Tab works as expected in the UltraWebGrid. Also, pressing Shift+tab makes the cell move left. I've used the UltrawebGrid in a Webapp designed to replicate excel, the only difficulty I had (and i think it was because of an older version) was that in Excel, once you press Enter in a cell, the cell selection moves down, where as in the grid it moved right...but was fixable using the grid events.
