| combobox e.handled not working (4 replies) |
| microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.windowsforms |
| If I handle keypressed or keydown for a combobox, and set e.handled true, processing does NOT seem to stop. That is, I can't "cancel" a keystroke headed for a combobox. I have tried this both in a windows form, and by creating a class that inherits from combobox. by the way, it works perfectly for a text box, I can cancel a keystroke if I want, but not for the combobox. Anyone else have any ideas?... |

| Combo Box Key Events not firing. (4 replies) |
| microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.windowsforms |
| I am building an AutoSearch/AutoComplete combo box like the VB.6 version I have used many times before. The problem now is that the DropDownList combo style is the only one that fires Key Events (Down, Press, Up). The docs say these events exist for all styles but they are not firing. Anyone have any ideas here. Is this by design?! Oscar Bowyer |

| Multiple Documents in MDIs - When an MDI actually contains multi views on a single document (3 replies) |

| You know how MS Access allows you to create multiple views of the same data/database within an MDI (you can view multiple tables/queries within an MDI) into a database with many child forms contained within a single MDI? It's not really an MDI rather, a Multiple View Frame (MVF?) That's what I want to recreate, I see how one creates an MDI and uses the Application.Run method to start the event loo... |

| Supress Beep on Keys.Enter KeyPress? (2 replies) |
| microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.windowsforms |
| I'm sure this is probably a simple thing to do, but I just haven't figured it out yet. In VB6, I was able to supress the beep that occurs when the user presses Keys.Enter (in a TextBox, for example) by setting the KeyAscii value to 0: Private Sub Text1 KeyPress(KeyAscii As Integer) If KeyAscii vbKeyReturn Then KeyAscii 0 End If End Sub How do I supress the beep in VB.Net? |
