Hi,
I want to close my form when the user presses the Escape key.
I tried to catch the event KeyPress of the form but the program do not go
through this code.
I tried to catch the KeyPress event for several conrtrols in the dialog and
the event was caught, but I do not want to catch this event for every
control in the form.
What is the right way to close the form when the user presses Escape ?

Set the Form's CancelButton to a Button instance that has the
DialogResult property set to DialogResult.Ca ncel; this will cause the
form to be closed with a cancellation result.

If the form is a dialog, then in probably some sort of a Close or
Cancel button (it is a good idea to include at least Close, anyway,
per the UI guidelines). If so, you can set the form's CancelButton
property to that button, and it will be automatically pressed (and its
Click event handler called) when the user presses ESC. This is the
preferred way.
If you'd really rather have a form without Close, then you should set
its KeyPreview property to true - then, it will receive any key event
before it reaches the child controls.

Try using the KeyDown Form event. Works for me.
private void Form1_KeyDown(o bject sender, KeyEventArgs e)
{
if (e.KeyCode == Keys.Escape)
Application.Exi t();
}

Hi,
You can use Form.ProcessCmd Key to handle any control key, like ESC,
enter, etc.
This allow you to decide what to do with more control This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics |

For some reason, when I click the X to close my MDI parent form, the action
appears to be re-directed to one of the MDI child forms, and the parent
remains open. I am then unable to close the application.
What should happen, is that the main MDI form should close, taking the child
forms with it. There is code to loop through the child forms, remove the
controls on each of them, and then close the form, but this code should

I have a VB.NET form which I'm displaying modally using the ShowDialog()

Within the form is a Cancel button, and I've set this button into the Form's
CancelButton property so that pressing Escape automatically clicks the
button.
Within the button's Click event code I display a confirmation messagebox to
ensure the user really does want to cancel. However, regardless of what code
I put in this event, the dialog form always...
