KeyPress Event on DataGrid Not Firing?

[Bruce D]

I've tried to Google for the answer...and I'm sure it's something
stupid...but for some reason if I try something as simple as this...I never
see a messagebox. I have created the columns programmatically using
'DataGridTextBoxColumn' and such. I can click on the colums and type over
what is displayed.

Any ideas?

Private Sub DataGrid1_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles DataGrid1.KeyPress
' MsgBox(e.KeyChar.ToString)
MessageBox.show("Hello")
End Sub


TIA

Nevermind. I am slow today! Maybe being new to VB.NET doesn't help.

I found that the problem was that the textboxes have control and not the
grid...so I had to create keypress handlers for the texboxes inside the grid
and then it works.

Sorry to waste the posting space! Next time I'll wait until Tuesday

Bruce,

Did you pass this site while searching on Google.

I thought there was something in it about your question

Be aware that it is sometimes very slow probably because DNS errors.
