Press Enter and Executre button

18 New Member
Hi All,
in my form I have two textboxes (T1,T2) and two buttons (B1,B2)

how can i insert text in T1 and press enter to execute B1 event, and insert text in T2 and press enter to execute B2 event.

the only thing that i found is that I set in the Form itself the property of AcceptButton and choose which button (only one button)

is there away for doing so? (i know it is possible but need help :) )

Regards,

I think you would have to use the keydown event of the form and in that even check which textbox is set to focus, and raise the appropriate event accordingly

Double click T1 (textbox) and open the keypress event then use code such as:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. if asc(e.keychar) = "13" then
  2. B1.performclick
  3. end if
  4.  
You see the asci code for enter key is "13"
Everytime a key is pressed when the textbox is in focus it will check to see if it was the enter key.

Consider a simple form with a textbox and button. Is there a way to handle the common situation where a user presses "return" rather than clicks on the button. I can already detect the "return" key press using the textbox's onkeypress event and now what I'm looking for is something like: onkeypress="if 'return' key pressed, then button.click=True"

I've created a simple search form and a submit button. On click of the button, I have code-behind that runs and fills a datagrid.

It looks like the submit happened, but since my code to fill the datagrid is in the submit_click method, it's...
