Replace return with tab

I have a form in c#. I want whenever a user presses return
on a text box, combo box or numericupdown control the key
press will be trapped and replaced with a tab character
forcing the user to move to the next control. I can trap
for the character but can only block the return and then
do a sendkeys for tab.

Surely there is a way to change the character that is
trapped.

Thanks Paul

Paul,

The Form's SelectNextContr ol method should do what you want without
requiring a remapping to the tab character.

HTH,
Nicole

Hi all, I asked this question in the C group but no one seems to be interested in answering it. :-( Basically, I wrote a search and replace function so I can do: char source = "abcd?1234?x"; char search = '?'; char* replace = "***"; char* result = search_and_replace(source,search,replace);

Is there a way to combine these two Replace into a single line? Regex.Replace(Subject, "\&", "&amp;") Regex.Replace(Subject, "\'", "&apos;") Perhaps Regex.Replace(Subject, "{\&|\'}", "{&amp;|&apos;}") Thanks, Craig

Okay I am ready to pull what little hair I have left out. I pass the function below my String to search, my find string (a regular expression) and my replace string (another regular expression).
