Then you will have to use MyTextBox instead of the standard TextBox

Thanks all, I thought of these solutions. I just thought I missed some
property to do it at design time.

Hi,

How about this. I wrote an extender which adds a preventhighlight
property to the textbox. You just have to drop the component on the form to
add the property.

Well, it's easy to add a property to turn the behavior off in the
derived class.

Hi Ken,

I know that you can do that, I had written a same message as you and saw
than the word DESIGN, so I had fun that you two did the same.

And I was expecting that Herfried would tell the same as you And than I had
my message again ready, however I have fun tickling Herfried, with you I do
not do that.

I feel guilty that you took that work, next time you would not take that
work, I know you can do that when you tell it.

Maybe you can show the OP how to make that derived class in DESIGN time.
(Without any code of course).

LOL, that's not as easy, in other words, that's impossible. Or is using
the text editor a design time operation too?

I think the OP wants a control that provides a property for enabling the
behavior when designing the form in the Windows Forms form editor.
