GetNextControl

[Alfred Gary Myers Jr.]

Hi,

Is there any way I could get the functionality of
System.Windows.Forms.Control.GetNextControl in the Compact Framework?

Thanks in advance

The tab order of the controls in CF will correspond the order of the
controls in the Form.Controls collection, so the implementation of would
look something like this:

public Control GetNextControl(Control ctl, bool forward)
{
int currIndex = this.Controls.IndexOf(ctl);

if (forward)
{
//check if it's the last control in the collection
if (currIndex < this.Controls.Count)
currIndex++;
else
currIndex = 0; //move to the first one
}
else //backwards
{
//check if it's the first control in the collection
if (currIndex > 0)
currIndex--;
else
currIndex = this.Controls.Count - 1; //move to the last one
}
return this.Controls[currIndex];
}
