form.showdialog problem

• D Hoffman

  I dont know why i also cannot get the result what i want.

  When i press the ENTER on my DGV, it cannot pass the result to the other form, and close itself.

  But when i press the btnOK by mouse, i can get the result what i want.

  I have add the msgbox inside the keypress function, i am sure the program can capture the enter,

  but have do anything, do you know why

  Here is my code 2 form code

  Public Class frmChooseItems

  Private Sub DataGridView1_CellContentClick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewCellEventArgs) Handles dgvChooseItem.CellContentClick

  End Sub

  Private Sub frmChooseItems_Enter(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Enter

  End Sub

  Private Sub frmChooseItems_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
  Try
  If cnAlfol.State <> ConnectionState.Open Then
  cnAlfol.ConnectionString = cnStr
  cnAlfol.Open()
  End If

  DsChoose.dtItems.Clear()
  adChooseItems.Fill(DsChoose)

  Me.dgvChooseItem.DataSource = DsChoose.Tables("dtItems")

  Catch ex As Exception
  MsgBox(ex.Message)
  Finally
  cnAlfol.Close()
  End Try

  
  End Sub

  Private Sub dgvChooseItem_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles dgvChooseItem.KeyPress
  If e.KeyChar = Convert.ToChar(13) Then

  'any of the next 2 lines works and raise button1.click event

  'Button1.PerformClick()

  MsgBox("ENTER")

  btnOK_Click(Nothing, Nothing)
  End If
  End Sub

  Private Sub btnOK_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnOK.Click

  End Sub
  End Class

  The other form

  Dim frmChooseItems As New frmChooseItems

  If frmChooseItems.ShowDialog = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
  With Me.dgvPUINVD.Rows(y)
  .Cells("dgvtxtItemID").Value = getDGVCellValueStr(frmChooseItems.dgvChooseItem, "ItemID")
  .Cells("dgvtxtBarcode").Value = getDGVCellValueStr(frmChooseItems.dgvChooseItem, "Barcode")
  .Cells("dgvtxtShortName").Value = getDGVCellValueStr(frmChooseItems.dgvChooseItem, "ShortName")
  .Cells("dgvtxtLongName").Value = getDGVCellValueStr(frmChooseItems.dgvChooseItem, "LongName")
  .Cells("dgvtxtUnitPrice").Value = getDGVCellValueStr(frmChooseItems.dgvChooseItem, "UnitPrice")
  .Cells("dgvtxtCategoryName").Value = getDGVCellValueStr(frmChooseItems.dgvChooseItem, "CategoryName")
  .Cells("dgvtxtCategoryDesc").Value = getDGVCellValueStr(frmChooseItems.dgvChooseItem, "CategoryDesc")
  .Cells("dgvtxtBrandName").Value = getDGVCellValueStr(frmChooseItems.dgvChooseItem, "BrandName")
  .Cells("dgvtxtBrandDesc").Value = getDGVCellValueStr(frmChooseItems.dgvChooseItem, "BrandDesc")
  .Cells("dgvtxtQty").Value = 1
  .Cells("dgvtxtDiscount").Value = 0
  End With
  End If
  frmChooseItems.Dispose()

  But i add

          If e.KeyCode = Keys.Enter Then
              Call btnOK_Click(sender, e)
          End If

  in 'Do Something

   

  when i press the enter key on the form, i also cannot get the same result as i press the OK Button

  (close myself and return the value to the parent form)

  WHY

   

   

  
  

• Ralph11234

  I have set it already,

  therefore when i press the btnOK, i can get what i want,

  but i cannot get what i want through this calling method

  If e.KeyCode = Keys.Enter Then
  Call btnOK_Click(sender, e)
  End If

  WHY

  I think is the if statement cannot capture the enter key, it is because i add the msgbox inside the if statement,

  i cannot get the msgbox popup when i press "ENTER" on the DGV.

  Can you help me

  hi,

  first of all your program doesn't know anything except what you wrote so if you didn't wrote it in a way can be executed then your program will do nothing

  second your datagridview in your second form will not be able to see the other datagridview in the other form you have to pass data between forms

  third you asked about keypress and its different when you deal with the datagridview

  fourth nothing better than a good book or a decent tutorial , the absolute beginner vedio series has a good tutorial about this , in the "RSS feed" there is a good example about how to pass a dataset between forms useing properties, and you can bound both of your datagridview to the same dataset or the same datatable , i believe this is in "Channel form " part in the tutorial

  hope this helps

• bob_monkhouse_book_of_gags

  hi,

  because you call the method doesn't have the same signature call it like this

  Call btnOK_Click(nothing, nothing)

  or call button class to click

  btnOk.Click

  hope this helps
