Capturing carriage returns in a stringgrid

[jrdoner]

I am using a string grid to permit entry of a list of words by a user. I capture the keystrokes to the string grid with its OnKeyUp method, so that when I get a carriage return, my program can examine the user-entered word for correctness.

But, it always takes two presses of the carriage return, which I suppose indicates that some lower level of editing software for stringgrid captures the first carriage return. Is there any way to fix this so that the OnKeyUp method can capture the first carriage return?

Thanks in advance for any insights into this problem.

Why are you using 'OnKeyUp' rather than 'OnKeyDown'
However Editing directly in a string grid involves the in place editor, its important that this is set up correctly.
