datagrid control focus

[Ian Oldbury]

i do a postback on a field within a dot.net datagrid (in editmode) and need
to set the focus to a specific field within the grid. Has anyone done this,
any suggestions?

Ian,
This would be similar to setting focus on any control. Use
Page.RegisterStartupScript(..). On the ItemDataBoundEvent of the datagrid,
do a FindControl() to get the control you want to focus. Then you can
RegisterStartupScript and do a document.all[\"" + ctl.ClientID +
"\"].focus()

Best regards,
