I use aDBGrid connect to dbf file into my barcode mobile reader with
arm processor.
I wanna that every time I read a barcode it insert it into my first
column cell.
Problem is that first I have to go into edit mode of the cell, with
pressing enter, before I can write something into it.
Is there some property to automate insert?

It's enough to set these properties

AutoAdvance = aaDown
dgAlwaysShowEditor:= true

Hi Fabio.

Look at it this way: Visual controls follow the dataset. Make the
change on the dataset.
