Problem with the OnKeyDown event...

[Georgi Atanasov]

Hi, I experienced a strange problem - I am currently building an application that has a user control in it and for this control I want to trap the pressing of the ARROWS keys. BUT... The problem is that only the OnKeyUp event occurs for THOSE KEYS - this is not what I need :(( I tried overriding the ProcessKeyMessage method and found out that the control actually is not RECEIVING the WM_KEYDOWN message for the ARROW keys! Any idea how to solve this problem? Thanks, Georgi

I dont understand, on my machine both the keyup and keydown events are fired. Bo Hunter

I had thesame trouble, try to check another methods containing "key" in their names. I override ProcessKeyPreview and ProcessDialogKey in similar case. Or use KeyUp() ... Hi, AW

All that you have to do is to override IsInputKey and then you'll be able to process key in OnKeyDown method
