GP - Validate Edit Keep Cell Focus

[Tbaseflug]

I have a GP - I perform a ValidateEdit AjaxEvent - so the user enters data in Cell 1 - tabs over to next cell - and the validateedit function fires - but the second cell loses focus - is there a way to keep the 2nd cell focused after the validate edit function?

Any updates on this query?

I also have a grid with two columns IssuedQuantity and ReturnedQuantity. Only the ReturnedQuantity column is editable...

In the ValidateEdit event, if the ReturnedQuantity is zero or more than IssuedQuantity, then I am showing a message to the user...

After terminating the message I would like put the focus back to the cell in question and keep it in edit mode...

Oh, BTW I did try using e.grid.startEdit(e.row, e.column) after showing the messagebox in ValidateEdit event...

It does nothing!!! There is no JavaScript error either...
