Spread Windows Forms provides multiple ways to customize navigation within the component, including keyboard navigation and action keys. With input maps and action maps, you can determine actions in the Spread component that occur when the user presses keys. A default mapping of keys and related actions is provided; however, you can customize these maps that define the mapping of keys to actions. For example, you can map the Enter key so that the component moves the focus to the cell below the current cell.

You can load an Excel compatibility input action map or other map file. You can also save an input action map to a file.

For more information about navigation keys, input maps, and action maps, refer to the descriptions in Managing Keyboard Interaction.
