In my Windows app, if I'm in a multi-line textbox and I'm writing a postal
address (ie. write ist line and press <Enter>, write 2nd line and press
<Enter>, etc...) how can I make sure that the Enter key will ALWAYS make the
cursor jump to the following line in the textbox? For some reason, and this
happens everywhere
except on my development PC, if a user's writing a line and presses the
<Enter> key, the program interprets that as the user pressing another button
in the Form (instead of jumping to the next line of the multi-line textbox).
I think it has something to do with where the focus is on the Form, but as
long as the cursor's on the multi-line, an <Enter> press always has to jump
to the next line. How can i make sure that it always happens?
The worst part is that I can't debug it in my dev PC because it never
happens there.
Thanks.

If the form has got an AcceptButton linked to a button, then enter on the
form will cause a button clicked event to be fired on this button, UNLESS
the current focus is sitting in a control which has the "AcceptRetu rn"
property set to true.
Does your text box have this property set to true?

During testing <div style="overflow:auto;"> in CSS I noticed the
mousewheel would work in Mozilla only after I made a <a href="#">some
text</a> link and clicked on that, within the div.
It appears as if Mozilla needs to have the focus set on that div in
order for the mousewheel to work. That's all that link does. The
mousewheel works perfectly in IE without the link. It scrolls the div
even if there is a scrollbar on the page.

I have a database to be used in a multi-user
environment. Is there a way that within a query (which
my forms are based on) I can identify if a record is in
currently in use by another user? Beyond record locking,
I would like this query to actually skip any records
currently active,open, or otherwise have focus.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

1. Is there a way to programatically remove the focus from the form; ie, so
the focus is not on any control on the form?
2. Is there a way to programatically set the focus to the same place as is
done when the form opens; ie, the first control in the taborder which is
visible, which is enabled and whose tabstop property is True?

I have created a c-sharp app that has keyup, keydown events tied to the
form. The form also has some other controls, buttons, labels and 1 custom
control that I made which inherits from user control.
My problem is ... When I first start the app all my keyboard events work
fine and by doing debugging I can see that my form has the focus. After I
click on a button or my custom control the focus is shifted to those
controls and the keyup,...

I want to set a control in a form to have the default focus.
This is not the accept button -- that's set to a button when is
'clicked' when you press ENTER. I want a textbox to have the focus
when the form is loaded. The textbox cannot be the first in the Tab
order, since it's not at the top of the window, and it seems silly to
start the tab order at it just to fix this issue. I cannot call
control.Focus() from Form1_Load() since...

I have a number of controls on a tab page. I want to validate them all
when the user tries to leave the tab. I then want to highlight the
first control which fails validation. How can I do this? I try setting
focus but something seems to set the focus back to the control which
had it before validation. Any ideas?

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
