Hi,

I've been studying the behavior of the NumericUpDown on a PocketPC since
yesterday and found some interesting things:
- Validating will be called if you change focus to another control, but
won't if you maintain focus on the control while moving to another record.
- KeyDown, KeyPress, KeyUp, TextChanged aren't triggered when typing into
the text portion of the control, but TextChanged is triggered if I change
Text by code.

If I change the control's value by the text portion and move to another
record, it doesn't save the contents, while if I change it's value by
clicking on it's arrows and move to the next record, it saves the value.

Any workarounds?
Will theese issue be addressed in SP 2 or later?
Does anybody know when will SP 2 arive?

Thanks in advance

Are you working with VB.NET or in C#?

I have some beta NUD replacement code for WinCE in VB.NET. Shoot me an
email and I'll send it your way.
 
Hi Alfred,

Sorry you've waited so long for a response...

Validating is only tied in with focus changes, so it's expected that moving
to another record doesn't fire the event. (ByDesign for us).
Key events are only supported for forms, custom controls, panels, textboxes
and datagrid prior to SP2. This will be addressed in SP2 as all controls
will support key events.
The TextChanged event not firing is a known bug, but it didn't meet the bar
for any of the service packs.

| If I change the control's value by the text portion and move to another
| record, it doesn't save the contents, while if I change it's value by

I'm not sure what's going on here - could you provide some repro code?
This might be caused by the ValueChanged event not firing when the user
enters text. You could prehaps use the LostFocus event instead.

Hope this helps you out,
-Katie
