Remarks

The ShowOnEnterKey property specifies whether an end-user can open an Edit Form by pressing the Enter key. If the ShowOnEnterKey property is set to True or Default, this feature is enabled. You can also allow an end-user to open an Edit Form with a double mouse click on a grid row or with the F2 key. For this purpose, use the GridOptionsEditForm.ShowOnDoubleClick and GridOptionsEditForm.ShowOnF2Key properties.
