Hi,

I am trying to add an "KeyPress" event in a textbox (WinForm)

this.textBox1.KeyPress += new System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventHandler(CheckKeys);

and here's inside the 'CheckKeys':

    private void CheckKeys(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.KeyChar == (char)13)
        {
            // Enter is pressed - do something

        }
    }

The idea here is that once a textbox is in focus and the 'Enter' button was pressed, something will happen...

However, my machine cannot find the 'KeyPress' event. Is there something wrong with my codes?

I need a little help on this one. Thanks.
