Grid with columns[].currentcontrol being containers

Grid with multiple columns, each column's currentcontrol being a
container, and the container made up of 3 textboxes.

When I hit the down arrow, the focus switch from grid.columns[i] to
grid.columns[i+1], rather than skipping to the next record.

Is there a way to avoid that?

That's not by default.
Are you sure your are not doing this programmatically ?

You meant it's normal to go from columns[i] to columns[i+1] when
pressing down arrow inside this grid?

no,
it should go by default to the next record.

I also have seen this behaviour and could not find a solution.

So what's the most likely reason for my observation? I glanced all the
keypress() of the form, none of them re-defined the movement.

maybe a seek() or locate or whatever procedure that might
move the recordpointer.
If you move (or don't move) the recordpointer somewhere behind the scene,
this will affect the grid.activerow.

Until there is a better solution, I am doing these:

form.keypressed():
lparameter nKeyCode, nShiftAltCtrl
do case
case nKeyCode=5
* down arrow
nodefault
if upper(thisform.activecontrol.name)="GRD"
with thisform.grd
select (.recordsource)
skip
if eof()
go bottom
endif
endwith
endif

My problem was with the ActiveColumn, not ActiveRow. :)

so there is no "special" behaviour of the grid ;-)

I am using my own framework, but I don't re-call re-defining the down/up
arrow key in my classes. It could be a problem of focus, but I have yet
to figure out the problem.
