    Enter Key Action

    Post by wayne_Avery »

    Hi, I have a form which has a text box and an OK button. After entering a value in the text box I would like to be able to hit the enter key to initiate the action that the OK button does. I haven't been able to work this out. Currently the only option is to use the mouse to click on the OK button. Can anyone help out with this?
    Cheers
    Wayne

    The
    form has a property called AcceptButton. Set this property to the Ok Button in
    the designer and it should fire when you press enter.For
    more details on the controls, I suggest looking out our Spotlight on
    Controls blog series. We have articles on both the Form and Button controls. David

    Brilliant! I don't know how I missed that property. Works like a charm. Many thanks - Wayne
