Starting with version v2016 vol 1 (v16.1), this functionality is available out of the box. Set the grid's SettingsEditing.BatchEditSettings.StartEditAction property to the FocusedCellClick value to activate it. Please refer to the Batch Editing and Updating demo and ASPxGridView - Batch Edit - Provide cell focusing and keyboard navigation thread for more information.
If you have version v16.1+ available, consider using the built-in functionality instead of the approach detailed below.
For earlier versions:
In this example, ASPxGridView is used in Batch Edit mode. This feature allows users to move focus from one editable cell to another. Navigation is performed by the Up/Left/Down/Right buttons.

Thank you very much, I will try your example over the weekend when I have more time to experiment.
For now I disabled the Mouse Wheel with AllMouseWheel = false and set the Increment to 0 and the Large Increment to 0 and it works.
