I have a button on my form which is enabled when the user selects a record
in the datagrid (I do not want an edit button for each record in the grid).
How can I force the datagrid into edit mode when the user clicks on this
button?

Unfortunately, I see no one has answered this. I would have like to do
something very similar: Create a "new" row in the gridview, then select
(position) on that new row and go into edit mode. This would give me a
simple way to create a new row in the database.

To force the grid control into Edit mode, use the ChangeMode function like
this:-

GridView.ChangeMode(GridViewMode.Edit)

unfortunately, that ChangeMode method only works in DetailsView, not
GridView, but it is a nice thing to know anyway.
