dataview event handler

[Guest]

i'm trying to make an event handler for my dataview but there does not seem
to be an option for it. i want the event handler to listen for key presses.
currently i have:


this.dvTypes += new System.EventHandler(this.dvKeyPress);

void dvKeyPress(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventHandler e)
{
MessageBox.Show("Key Pressed");
}

this is being done in ADO .NET

Oscar:

One approach might be to create a new class, perhaps, MyDataView class,
which inherits from DataView, and then create your event in this new class.

A DataView isn't really a UI component, but is rather a data component.
Yes, it has a design time representation, but this is for design time
configuration of databound controls etc. The concept of KeyPress on a
DataView doesn't make sense. You have a KeyPress on a UI control, such as a
ComboBox or a DataGrid that is bound to the DataView, but no keypress on the
DataView itself.
