Guys,

I have a text box. I simply want to save the text from the text box
(and popluate a buttons text) and remove the text box when a user hits
the enter button.

Can someone help?

Private Sub RenameToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As
System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles
RenameToolStripMenuItem.Click

        Dim NewTxtBox As New TextBox
        NewTxtBox.Location = ActiveControl.Location
        Me.Controls.Add(NewTxtBox)

         Dim KeyAscii As Keys
        If KeyAscii = Keys.Enter Then
           Me.Controls.Remove(NewTxtBox)
           ActiveControl.Text = NewTxtBox.Text
        End If
    End Sub

Marc. Examples that will help you find the answer to almost every question
you have asked in the past few days (in this newsgroup) can be found in the
VS2005 documentation which can be accessed by pressing F1 whilst in the
VS2005 IDE.

Have you actually bothered to look there?

What do you mean by 'Yes its not there'?

Do you mean that you have looked and you can't find it, or do you mean that
when you press F1, the help/documentation does not appear?

If it is the latter then install your copy of VS2005 correctly.

If it is the former then try a few searches on pertinent keywords.

In the index, typing keys.e brings up a entry named Keys.ControlKey
enumeration member which in turn provides an example of hooking up an event
that will handle the pressing of a key.
