Solution 2

C#

void dataGridView1_PreviewKeyDown(object sender, PreviewKeyDownEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.KeyCode == Keys.Enter)
    {
        // Handle your transaction to DB here
    }     
}

why you can't insert your data to db inside the above code block? normally when you hit enter on datagridview it will go to a new line.

check this link if you have any doubts regarding inserting data to database

Dear Dilan I know how to save data in to db, and I'm thankful for your time, but that is not what I want, I mean in the end this will happen, what I want is: I don't want to use any sort of button, the data is entered in the grid columns and when pressed enter key that is saved to db, I've done other stuff like save data in in to grid on button click but not when there is just grid.
for example please see this screen short screen shot
