Where are you stuck?

What's wrong with just reading original MSDN documentation? You could find all answers faster.

need for code to create a shortcut when i press that its should move from textbox to datagridview row

Creating a short-cut is different from parsing the Text in a TextBox and getting a DataGridView Cell address you can use to select a Cell.

Please edit your question to be more clear about what it is you actually want.

There is no such thing as "cell_select". If it's your own method or other member, it's your problem.

Now, you need to understand that focusing and selection are two different things. Focusing is related to keyboard focus and nothing else; there is only one focused control in entire desktop. Focusing is done by calling Control.Focus:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.control.focus(v=vs.110).aspx[^].

Note that focusing is only possible on currently visible and enabled controls. Alternatively, you can use your form's ActiveControl property:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.containercontrol.activecontrol%28v=vs.110%29.aspx[^].

Selection in DataGridView depends on its SelectionMode:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.datagridview.selectionmode%28v=vs.110%29.aspx[^],
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/3c89df86%28v=vs.110%29.aspx[^].

You can select a current cell by using the property System.Windows.Forms.DataGridView.CurrentCell:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.datagridview.currentcell%28v=vs.110%29.aspx[^].
