Hope this helps, our control is a dbGrid descendant but this would probably
work.
In the key on key down event compare the selectedIndex to the # of fields
if (csGrid.SelectedIndex = csGrid.Columns.Count -1)
if you are on the last field then move to the next control, you could hard
code it
nextcontrol.setfocus;
or use the tab order
SelectNext(csGrid.Handle, True, True);

Subject: [DUG]: How to stop TDBCtrlGrid wrapping
> I want to use a TDBCtrlGrid for a form I'm designing, but the wrapping
> behavior is making things awkward. I really need for Tab to exit the

> around to the first control in the last record's panel. Same for
> Shift-Tab at the first control of the first record.

> I know I could fix this by creating a descendant of TDBCtrlGrid, but

> Environment is BCB4, so any solution that works for the Delphi4 should
