I developed a windows application. The input screen has two date pickers followed by a set of textbox as input fields.
After checking on the Dates
When I click on Tab Control, Cursor is not transferred for next input, it goes to submit button
What settings should i specify to transfer control sequentially across the input text boxes before finally hitting submit button
Thanks in Advance for the help
Set the TabIndex property of each control.
To help with that, you can click the Tab Order button in the WinForms designer toolbar, then click the controls in your desired order to set their TabIndicies.

I'm making a Windows Form as seen below. When I click on a row in the DataGridView, the details of a person is transferred unto the TextBoxes at the side. When the user click the Edit button,the entire Panel to the right becomes editable; the TextBoxes and CheckBoxes are Enabled and allows the users to edit a person's name, birthday, etc. After which, the changes are saved to the database.
I don't want the user to click a different row while editing and thus want to detect when a user leaves the Panel so I can prompt him/her.
How do I detect if I've lost focus of the Panel?
If I'm going about this wrong, please respond with the appropriate answer instead.
Perhaps when the user begins editing a record in the Panel you could set the Enabled property of the DataGridView to False, and when a Save button is pressed you can set the Enabled property to True again.
I'm a beginner at C# and I'm making this calculator and it has multiple text boxes for different calculations. I've assigned calculator button numbers (0-9) for user input. I can get the number buttons to work for the various textboxes but they are all inputted at the same time. I want to make it so that if a certain textbox is selected, then the user can start using the buttons. Any ideas?
Thanks
You can implement the OnFocus event of the corresponding TextBox. In the method you should set the Enable flag of the Button instance to true where they were originally set to false.
Furthermore you need to keep track of which Textbox was selected last, and redirect output to that one if the user clicks a Button.
I am using a web browser control in wpf to load a web page. I need to have a wpf button which when clicked will help the user to move next input field, The web page have two text box and two radio buttons as input fields. How can i simulate this when the wpf button is clicked?
To set focus on a WPF textbox you can do as following. (Possible duplicate : source)
To set logical focus to an input control
FocusManager.SetFocusedElement(this, textboxJack); // set logical focus
To set keyboard focus to an input control
Keyboard.Focus(textboxJill); // set keyboard focus
I am creating a Windows forms user control. This control has a textbox and a listbox.
When the end user types text in the textbox, the listbox will appear and filter the data
depending on the text box. The data is set by a datasource.
I have created this control because I want to filter in the contains of data "not start with."
Now after I create the control I found a problem when the list appear it did not appear out of form boundaries.
I change the control size in appear and disappear the listbox. What can I do?
You can not show a ListBox out of the boundaries of its parent Form. What you really wan to do is open a new Form where ListBox is visible.
Hope this helps.
UI is created in VS 2008. I'm using C# .... I need to let the user move/focus between text fields from top to bottom by clicking tab button. How can i do it?
On the Layout toolbar (will normally show up if you're in Design View) click on the buttom on the most right (it's called tab order).
Now on every element on your designer will come up a little box with a number. Just click all your elements in the order you like and they will automatically be re-ordered.
If you like to do it manually, just take ho1 advice and change the property manually.
You just set up the TabIndex property properly, so that it's sequential from top to bottom. Then it'll work automatically and you won't need any code to move around the focus.
So in other words, set the top TextBox TabIndex to 1, the next one you set to 2 etc and then one at the bottom will have the highest number (of the textboxes, you probably want to have even higher indexes for any OK buttons and similar so that the user can jump to them after editing all the textboxes).
