How to select (highlight and receive focus) entire text of selected cell in Delphi DBGrid?

Question

Hello,

I have a simple DBGrid, DBNavigator, and an 'Edit' Button which simply calls

DBNavigator.BtnClick(nbEdit);

When the user clicks 'Edit', I want the text in the selected cell (just the text - not the whole cell) to be highlighted - as if ready to be overwritten; whereas when I do

DBGid.SetFocus; 
DBNavigator.BtnClick(nbEdit);

the whole cell is highlighted.

How can I select the entire text of a selected cell?

Answer 1

Set 'Options - dgAlwaysShowEditor' to true.

Answer 2

DBGrid.SelectedField.FocusControl;
