The KeyDownEdit event corresponds to the System.Windows.Forms.Control.KeyDown event, except it fires when the grid is in edit mode (in this case, the control that received the key is the editor, not the grid itself).
The editor has three modes: text, drop-down combo, or drop-down list. The mode used is determined by the C1.Win.C1FlexGrid.C1FlexGridBase.ComboList properties in the grid and column objects.
While editing with the text editor or with a drop-down combo, you may set or retrieve the contents of the editor by retrieving the editor control with the C1.Win.C1FlexGrid.C1FlexGridBase.Editor property and casting it to the proper type.
