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?
TIA,
KK

If you are using MFC, see MFC Library Reference TN026: DDX and DDV Routines

Thanks, but I'm not using MFC, that's why I posted in a dotnet forum.

What is the call stack when you change the focus? If it is in the middle of
processing a focus change event then something might indeed change the focus
afterward.
You could post a custom message to yourself and set the focus then, it will
be placed at the end of the message queue instead of setting the focus
synchronously. The .NET way of doing PostMessage to another thread is with
Control.BeginIn voke, I'm not sure how that would work on the same thread.
I'd use the real PostMessage just to be safe. Or for pure .NET, a winforms
timer could work too.

Hello all...I'm new to the board. I have a problem that I hope someone here
might be able to solve for me.
I am doing some clientside validation using Javascript. The text I am
testing is within a textbox that is part of a datagrid. To complicate
things, the datagrid is part of a user control. The following code is all
part of the user control.
The validation part of the script works fine. However, when I try to set

Hi all.
I felt frustrated when developing an 'UserControl' derivated from
textBox, because sequence event (and Validate event) seems to fail.
I Always thought my code was wrong. But after trying the UserControl a
lot of hours I have the feeling that c# (or .Net) fails.
Thus, I have developed a simple program with 3 textBox, 1 Botton and 1
ListBox (for showing results) which fire OnEnter, OnGotFocus,

Hi,
There is a tab control on a page with multiple tabs and handful of
controls in each tab. The way it's rendered in html (like grid etc..)
is in table format in tablerows and cells.
On clientside, on form validation in javascript, I would like to set
focus on to one of the tabs
and set the focus to the control on that tab.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

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,...
