When the ArrowsExitEditMode property is set to False, the arrow keys are used for editing the cell, and the user must press the Ctrl key and an arrow key to exit edit mode. Even when the ArrowsExitEditMode property is set to False, in single-line cells, pressing the up or down arrow key exits edit mode and moves the active cell in the specified direction.

When the ArrowsExitEditMode property is set to True, pressing the arrow keys causes the cell to exit edit mode and move the active cell in the appropriate direction.
