Cell SelectAll
posted

On form load i want a select all text in a particular cell value.

Here is my code, and cell is editable by user

 

ugPayments.ActiveCell = ugPayments.Rows(i).Cells(4)

ugPayments.ActiveCell.Selected =

True

ugPayments.ActiveCell.SelectAll()

But it is throwing me an error saying

Operation cannot be performed when not in edit mode.

    I think that you're confusing the Seleted state of a cell with actually selecting the text in the editor.  If you want to always select the text when the user enters edit mode you could do something like:

    private void ultraGrid1_AfterEnterEditMode(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        this.ultraGrid1.ActiveCell.EditorResolved.SelectAll();
    }

    If you want to programmatically enter edit mode:

    this.ultraGrid1.PerformAction(Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.UltraGridAction.EnterEditMode);
