Hello All

I am writing my first PDA application and need to know how to activate
and display the KeyPad when a user points to a textbox.

I've already installed NET SP2 after some advise in another thread in
this newsgroup, but still, when I run the application and click on a
textbox - no KeyPad ! Even after I added the KeyPad control to my
app.

Thanks for any help...

Do you refer to the InputPanel?

Input panel does not appear itself when you click on a text box, you must call it by ip.Enabled = true (where ip is the InputPanel) when you click iin that control.

Yes I am aware of this.

I am calling an InputPanel.enabled=true and InputPanel.enabled=false
each time the user clicks on or leaves a textbox control on the PDA
form, however when I run the application in the PDA emulator - still
no InputPanel appears (?)

Are you on CE, or a PPC/WM variation?

I've outdone myself this time...I was catching all the errors in
TRY..CATCH code and so no InputPad display and also no errors. So now
I've removed one TRY..CATCH block of code from the first
textbox.focus() event and got a list of system errors when the
application run and I try to enable the InputPad.

I copied the code across from a desktop Windows app, so I guess I am
calling declarations and routines that is not applicable in WindowsCE.
I'll just need to clean up the code.

Thanks for the help !
