Hi,

I have a flexgrid and I don't want the user to be able to enter certain columns.

So in the EnterCell event I see which column it entered and if it's one of the forbidden ones it is sent to another using the grid's Select method.

My problem is when the user double clicks a cell in a forbidden column. In this case the select method doesn't behave the same way: the focus disappears from the grid and the cursor remains in the forbidden cell...

The editor property is null so the grid is not in editing mode... right?

I tried StartEditing in another cell, then FinishEditing and then the Select. It works, but I don't think it is correct...

Should I use a different method to select the correct cell or a different event to detect the changing of the cell?

Thanks
 

You can restrict editing of the column and then simply use the Select method in the EnterCell event.  

C1FlexGrid1.Cols(x).AllowEditing = False

To avoid the blue selection box in the restricted column, set the SelectionMode on load to Cell
