ProcessTabKey from Custom User Control

[drewson]

Hi,

I've created a custom user control in VB.NET called kTextBox for a data entry application that includes a textbox and a picturebox in the control. The picturebox is just used to show the user whether the textbox has been validated. Every time the user hits ENTER while in the textbox, I want the cursor to move from one user control to the next on the form.

I've used the MyBase.ProcessTabKey(True) successfully only when there are multiple text boxes on one form. How can I code the ENTER key to move from the textbox control in my kTextBox control to the textbox in the next kTextBox control? The MyBase.ProcessTabKey(True) seems to only work within the kTextBox custom control and does not move the cursor out of the kTextbox custom control.

Thanks!
Drew

Got it.

MyBase.ProcessDialogKey(Keys.Tab)

Won't work for shift-tab, but that's ok.
