How to create the Text box Keydown event in C#

Add a handler for your TextBox's KeyDown event. (This assumes you set the AcceptsReturn property to False). Then in your KeyDown eventhandler, have code such as:

if (e.KeyCode = Keys.Enter)
          window.open();//code to open your UI

Also refer this link:

There is event of Keydown for textbox. use to check if enter is pressed.

Private void txtbrowse_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles btnBrowse.KeyDown
{
     if (e.KeyData = Keys.Enter)
     {
          //open new UI
     }
}

And also use a visual studios property window and there is one option to show all events attached to text box...

just select any event which you want and double click on it, it will automatically generate that event for you.....

OR use this syntax to generate event of any controll

yourcontrolID.youreventtogenerate += .. press two times tab key it will genrate that event fro you...

LIKE

TextBox1.TextChanged += TAB + TAB .......PRESS TAB KEY TWO TIMES

then it will generate like this...

RESULT IN....

TextBox1.TextChanged += new EventHandler(TextBox1_TextChanged);

void TextBox1_TextChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    throw new NotImplementedException();
}

Now copy that event name from genrated method and as per event modify your design code fro attaching that event to your text box... or any control...
