VS 2008 Can't Get Focus To Change From One Button To Another?
Jul 31, 2010
I am working on a timing program and have a start button programmed to clear all the variables and start timing events. I have another button programed to stop the timing and show the data. The problem is that when I place the cursor on the start button and press the left mouse button it workes fine, but when I move the cursor to the stop button and press the left mouse button the start buttons 3D showes that it was pressed? Since the start button clears all of the data there is nothing to display in the text boxes. If I press the left mouse button again the stop buttons 3D shows that it was pressed. Have looked everywhere for a hint as to what to do but have found nothing yet.

Dim NewButton As New Button
frmDownload.Controls.Add(NewButton )
This works. But I want to change what happens upon clicking NewButton. It should start an application. I tried NewButton.Click but that event doesn't exist.

I have a sequence of ASP.NET web forms, each holding a placeHolder control and 3 buttons: "Previous Page", "Quit" and "Save Answers" (in this order). On page-load event, the placeHolder is programmatically filled with a list of questions an a series of radioButtonList's for answering, and the focus is set on the "Save Answers" button using btnSaveAnswers.focus()
When the page loads, the focus is set on the "Save Answers" button as expected. The problem is that when i start clicking in radio buttons to answer questions, the focus shift on the "Previous Page" button (maybe because its the first in the row?) but i want it to stay on "Save Answers". So ho could i prevent shifting of the focus?Enclosing the 3 buttons on a panel and setting the defaultButton="Save Answers" property of the panel did not work. The tabIndex of the 3 buttons are 3, 1 and 0 respectively

I have a treeview, and lets say in the treeview I have the nodes "Textbox1", "Textbox2", and "Textbox3". Also on the form I have 3 textboxes. What I want it to do is when I click "Textbox1" in the tree, to select all text and bring focus to the first textbox. So on the AfterSelect event of the treeview, I find out what node Im on, and what textbox to go to, then I say Textbox1.Focus() : Textbox1.SelectAll().When I use the keyboard and navigate to that node, it works. It jumps the focus off of the treeview and to that textbox, selecting all it's text. Works fine.But when I click on it with my mouse, it doesn't. It does select the text, bring focus to the textbox, but immediately brings focus right back to the treeview. (you have to look really close to see it) I'm thinking there's some mouse event that is bringing the focus back to the treeview, but not sure what.

How to show the bottom part of the screen in the click of a button? On my site I have a picture and when the user clicks on this some more information is shown at the bottom of the page, althought i do have text at the top informing the user to scroll down once the picture is clicked it would be nice to automatically focus the page on the bottom half.

I am having problem setting focus on specific cell in my Datagridview1 . On Form1 when clicking on cell 3 in any row, I am callig a Dialog1. However, when done working with it, and closing the Dialog1, the focus returns to cell 3 in my Datagridview1 . I like to set the focus on the next cell(4) making it the current cell.
I have tryed :
DataGridView1.SelectionMode = DataGridViewSelectionMode.CellSelect
DataGridView1.CurrentCell = DataGridView1.Item(4, e.RowIndex)
DataGridView1.CurrentCell = DataGridView1.CurrentRow.Cells(4)
And few other things, I am always getting this exception: Operation is not valid because it results in a reentrant call to the SetCurrentCellAddressCore function.

The scenario is two forms. Form A has a button. You click on the button to open form b. Form b opens. Close form b. The focus returns to the button on form a. When the focus returns to form A, I'm trying to put the focus on another object like a text box and it won't go there. It keeps going back to the button. If I try to set the focus to a text box, the focus event of the text box is triggered but then it still continues to go back to the button. If I disable the button then I can prevent the focus from going back there, but then I can't use the button.

At the moment I have this to change focus of an element:
SendKeys.Send("{TAB}")
Instead of using that I was wondering if I could do something like this:
WebBrowser1.Document.All("id").InvokeMember("click")
But to get focus to the next element in line, like the next one from the current focused item.

In VB .Net 3.5, is it possible to change the color of a DataGridViewCell (unbound) to a different color and have the cell visibly change before losing focus or leaving the cell? I have a timer that's running that queries with the data present and I'd like for the colors to change immediately instead of after the user leaves the cell.
I've tried DataGridView.Refresh and Me.Refresh and don't get results.
What am I doing wrong? (Below is the code I use to change the background)
''' <summary>
''' Sets or clears the passed cells background to Red
''' </summary>

The buttons are to mark a row as a blanket order that is in the DGV, so I'm only wanting the button enabled if the user is in the DGV.

I am setting my Winforms Button control properties to appear as a hyperlink would on a web page. I've formatted everything fine, except the border in the FlatAppearance object. I have code to act as pseudo-CSS (FormBackColor is a string constant.):
b.FlatStyle = FlatStyle.Flat
b.BackColor = ColorTranslator.FromHtml(FormBackColor)
b.ForeColor = Color.Blue
[code]....
The code removes the border from the flat Button control except on MouseOver, where I add a 1 pixel border. On MouseLeave, I remove the border. This is to show some visual feedback. This works fine when the button does not have the focus. However, if I click on the button, giving the button focus, mousing out and over again now shows a greater than 1 pixel border around the button. I'm imagining it's combining my button's explicit 1 pixel border with the traditional "Winform Button has the focus, so add a border" border around the Button.How can I disable/remove the "Winform Button has the focus, so add a border" border? Or, should I just do a check in ButtonMouseOver to check if the control has the focus, being a condition of adding the border, and just be done with it?

My application has a form which contains several Textboxes where user is required to fill up data. Once data is filled up user can click on "Save" button to save the data. I have added lost focus events to all textboxes so as to validate user input. When I click on cancel button, i want to detect cancel button click, but textbox lost focus is fired first so I get error message for textbox before my code moves to cancel button click handler. Is there any way to detect button click before lost focus event?
