Capture Datagridview cell kepress event

vb.net

Solution

As per Fco Navarro's answer, except that using `e.Control` does not always work because `e` is passed in to the `EditingControlShowing` event `ByVal` meaning any changes to the control (eg changing the `.Text` property) are NOT reflected in the DataGridView. If you need to do anything with the actual TextBox control in your event handler, you can use `DataGridView1.EditingControl` instead of `e.Control`.

Private WithEvents txtNumeric As New DataGridViewTextBoxEditingControl

Private Sub DataGridView1_EditingControlShowing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewEditingControlShowingEventArgs) Handles DataGridView1.EditingControlShowing
    txtNumeric = CType(DataGridView1.EditingControl, DataGridViewTextBoxEditingControl)
End Sub

Private Sub txtNumeric_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As KeyPressEventArgs) Handles txtNumeric.KeyPress
    txtNumeric.Text = txtNumeric.Text.ToUpper()
End Sub
