Hi,
In VB6 you used to be able to modify keys as they were pressed in the
KeyPress event e.g. change it uppercase, remove certain characters etc.
How do I do this in .NET ?

In its simplest form:
Private Sub TextBox1_KeyPre ss(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.Windows. Forms.KeyPressE ventArgs) Handles TextBox1.KeyPre ss
Dim myChar As String
myChar = e.KeyChar
TextBox1.Text += UCase(e.KeyChar )
e.Handled = True
End Sub
You will have to enter more code to handle/not handle othe keypress events

Texboxes have a charactercasing property to only allow upper/lower case if
desired.
They have a keypress event, put code in there to handle the keypress, e.g.:
Private Sub TextBox1_KeyPre ss(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e _
As System.Windows. Forms.KeyPressE ventArgs) Handles TextBox1.KeyPre ss
If e.KeyChar = "j" Then
'Tell the textbox the event has been handled
'and the character wont be displayed...
e.Handled = True
End If
End Sub
Sorry, should of been:
Private Sub TextBox1_KeyPre ss(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.Windows. Forms.KeyPressE ventArgs) Handles
TextBox1.KeyPre ss
TextBox1.Text += UCase(e.KeyChar )
e.Handled = True
End Sub

Thanks for that. Why is it necessary to call the event from within itself ?

I have a combo box look up and list items in a table, it is not bound.
It works fine but how can I prevent the users from entering in there own
data?
i have an 'on change' event that when it changes, it does something else to
a field based on their selection.
I also have the LimitTOList on, but when they click in there, they get an
error first that says the

I am trying to catch the KeyPress event on my datagrid but it isn't

Hi,
I have two applications developed in C# say A and B. When user presses
key "L" with applicaition A active , it causes a keypress event which
causes application B to run. Application A then waits for application B
to exit. On exit from Application B the focus shifts back to
application A.
The problem is if user presses L more than once, say thrice, then three
keypress events are generated. Therefore application A starts

Hi,
I am running is some problems with the KeyPreview and KeyPress events.
The KeyPress event is only triggered when there this an focusable control on
the form. When all controls are disabled the Form.KeyPress event does not
trigger anymore.
A way to 'solve' this is to set the focus to the form, but during testing it
happens ofter the keypress event is not getting triggered on keys like

I have noticed that if a user closes a form via pressing return (either
while the OK button has focus or if AcceptButton is set to OK for the form)
then the "ENTER" keypress event fires ON THE CALLING FORM! This is very bad
for me, because in my application, Form1 responds to an ENTER keypress by
calling Form2. If the user closes Form2 via an ENTER, then Form1 just
reopens it again, kind of trapping the user in Form2 (they can still close...

In Visual Basic 6 I could call keypress with an integer of a choosen key.
