Capturing the Back Key

Hilton · May 28, 2007

Hi,

ListView lv;

Neither this.lv.KeyDown or this.lv.KeyPress see the Back key. How do I get
my code to 'see' it? FYI: KeyDown does see the Up and Down arrow keys.

Thanks,

Hilton

Hi,

I try this:
private void listView1_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
{
if (e.KeyCode == Keys.Back)
{
MessageBox.Show("back");
}
}
It works fine for me.

Fabien,

Does not work for me. I'm running this on a Blackjack (not sure if that
makes any difference), it has had no CF installed (post-purchase), therefore
it is running CF 1.0. I have tried changing a few ListView properties and
even using this.Controls.Add (this.lv) instead of this.lv.Parent = this, but
that didn't help either.

I would try the emulator, but VS keeps telling me "Interface not
supported" - gotta loves those perfectly clear error messages.

Seems to work find with other controls, ListView has a bug?

Hi,

If you use CF1.0, try to install the SP3 and if you can the CF2.0...
