• Windows Forms DataGridView KeyDown?

  (VS2005 - beta 2) Hello, is there anyway to capture a keypress or keydown event in the DataGridView   I know there's events called KeyDown and Keypress, but if the DGV is in edit mode, they never get caught.  My ultimate goal is to make it so pressing enter moves to the Cell to the right, instead of to the next row but I need to know what key is being pressed before I can do that.

• Visual Basic IDE Performance problems (slow building, slow property editors, ...) in VS 2005

  Hi, we are currently migrating our VB.NET VS 2003 projects to VS 2005. Some of our developers are experiencing performance problems with their VS 2005 IDE. These problems are becoming a blocking issue since it slows down their development time... The performance problems are multiple: slow builds, slow Intellisense, ... but when opening a designer screen with a PropertyGrid (eg. the "Properties" - "Compile" window of a VB.NET project's properties, the "embedded resource editor", ...) is really slow. The PropertyGrid draws itself one 'cell' every second, and in the case of a resource file with 100+ lines this tak ...Show All
