Any method like System.Windows. Forms.Applicati on.CancelEvents ()?

I have inherited a complex application with dozens of controls.

The new functionality I am to surgically insert is to prevent the user
from proceeding further if any of the data is incorrect in my control
on the current page.

I can capture the .Leave event from my control, but I do not want
Windows to honor the destination control that the user clicked. Is
there such a way to tell Windows to CancelEvents and do not activate
the control that the user clicked?

If there were, this method would be something like:

System.Windows. Forms.Applicati on.CancelEvents (), instead of:

System.Windows. Forms.Applicati on.DoEvents()

Thanks.

I need a little help trying to figure out the last piece of this puzzle. I've got a form with an associated toolbox that will allow a user to drag a control off the toolbox and drop it onto the form. The form instantiates the control using the Activator.CreateInstance method. What I then need to do (and the part I have not figured out) is how to attach a method from that control (a custom data refresh method) to a timer.elapsed...

Overview: 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,...
