Thanks Mike, that's the one.

It's not so much that I don't like the blue, it is that I couldn't get them to look the same and did not know was the difference. 

Now I can safely decide which I prefer and have them looking the same.

Much appreciated,

Paul

Another way to go would be to leave SelectTypeRow set to Single. And then turn off the SelectedAppearances: 

        private void ultraGrid1_InitializeLayout(object sender, Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.InitializeLayoutEventArgs e)
        {
            var layout = e.Layout;
            var ov = layout.Override;

            ov.SelectedAppearancesEnabled = DefaultableBoolean.False;

            ov.AllowDelete = DefaultableBoolean.True;
            ov.SelectTypeRow = SelectType.Single;
        }

Thanks Mike. 

I had thought about that but what concerns me is the slightest change in one thing seems to then have a knock on effect. A case in point being that we got rid of the highlight and then can't delete the row by pressing the delete button having just clicked upon the row selector.

I have two grids, how can one not highlight when you select the row and the other does highlight when you select the row, I want consistency hence trying to figure out the property that is different between the two.

The key_down was to be my last resort.

Thanks veyr much,

Paul

The Delete key deletes the selected rows. So if you have no selected rows, there's nothing to delete. 

You could re-implement this to delete the active row pretty easily, though: 

        private void UltraGrid1_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
        {
            switch (e.KeyCode)
            {
                case Keys.Delete:
                    if (!e.Control && !e.Shift && !e.Alt)
                    {
                        var activeRow = this.ultraGrid1.ActiveRow;
                        if (null != activeRow)
                            activeRow.Delete();
                    }
                        
                    break;
            }
        }

Hi Divya,

I just found out I can't delete a row by clicking the row selector and then the delete button when the setting above is SelectType.None.

What can I send you to try to reproduce this if I don't know what setting is doing it? I can't send the whole application that's for sure.

Thanks

Paul
