DataGridView: Make Enter Key Move to Next Column
To make a datagridview move to the next column when you press the enter key.

Using Enter Key to Move to nextCell...

VB
Private Sub DataGridView1_CellEndEdit(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewCellEventArgs) Handles DataGridView1.CellEndEdit
    SendKeys.Send("{up}")
    SendKeys.Send("{right}")
End Sub
Private Sub DataGridView1_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles DataGridView1.KeyDown
    If e.KeyCode = Keys.Enter Then
        SendKeys.Send("{up}")
        SendKeys.Send("{right}")
    End If

This code is completely wrong. And all other comments I see are also not good one - what about when you enter in cell Edit mode ?!?...You need to take that in equation too...
