I am trying to use a kepress event on a simple textbox. I want to be able to
capture the enter key when using a handheld with a keypad. I want to be able
to just jump to the next textbox or comobox like any other desktop program. I
cant seam to get the event to fire. I have tried putting other things before
the ife.keychar just to see if it goes into the code, nothing? Is there
something else I am missing. I am in VS2003 when developing. Running on a
IPAQ PPC2002

This is the code.

Private Sub TextBox1_KeyPress(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs)
If e.KeyChar = Chr(13) Then
ComboBox3.Focus()
End If
End Sub

I have not seen anything wrong unless you did not install the latest SP.
CF1.0 SP2 includes some fixes concerning a KeyPress event:

The latest SP at this moment is SP3:

Sergey,
Thanks for the info, I did update to the SP3. When I test in a plain form,
with just 2 textboxes it does work. On the form that I would like to use this
on I have a tabcontrol on the page. I have the textboxes on the tabcontrol,
all textboxes are on the same tab page. It's not firing when used there. Do
you know of any difference in a tab control?

There is no difference where a keypress event was fired. See your code
maybe you have set a handler for another control or something.

I could not reproduce the problem that you described. I attached a file
with the source code that I used in my testing. Please let me know if it
works for you.

Hope this helps.
Thank you,
Serg.
