Place the following code in textbox1's keydown event. Repeat for all other textboxes accordingly.
private void textBox1_KeyDown(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs e)
{
if (e.KeyCode == Keys.Enter)
textBox2.Focus();
}

Here is a better solution. Place this code in a common keydown event between all the textboxes. Then set the taborder of the textboxes in the order that they sould be focussed.
private void textBox1_KeyDown_1(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs e)
{
int i = ((TextBox)sender).TabIndex;
if (e.KeyCode == Keys.Enter)
{
foreach (Control c in this.Controls)
{
if (c is TextBox)
{
if (((TextBox)c).TabIndex == i + 1)
{
c.Focus();
}
}
}
}
}

To set and view the Tab order, On the View menu, choose Tab Order which is avilable in .NET IDE.
to select control using enter key, use below mentioned code block.
private void Form1_KeyDown(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs e)<br />
{<br />
<br />
if(e.KeyValue==13)<br />
{<br />
this.SelectNextControl(this.ActiveControl,true,true,false,true);<br />
}<br />
<br />
}
The above code block is only tip to achive your requirement.
Please see more details on SelectNextControl Method for different style of selection and parameter types in MSDN.

Sreejith, Sorry for the interruption in between. I doubt whether Form's KeyDown event will get fired, If textBox has the focus.
I feel, It would not solve the purpose. You should call the SelectNextControl method in the KeyDown Or KeyUp event of the textbox.

Dear friens,
Above problem working with windows forms.but my problem is how do we apply above things in webforms.cas in asp.net ,textbox don't have focus property right.
How we set enter key operations on asp.net.
Thanks

does any one know how to make a grand staff since i think i would have to use gdi+ since .net doesn't support making custom controls, any ideas on how to start though?

You Wrote:

What sort of control that you are looking for ?

DOH!!! , obviously he needs a "Lesser Staff" to inherit from 
and that is missing in .NET

Hi,
I wrote a .NET Windows service that spawns a thread which periodically performs some DB related work. When the service starts, it spawns the thread, when the service stops, it aborts the thread.
The thread sleeps for 30 seconds, then wakes ups and querys some DB values, then sleeps again in an infinite loop.
A friend suggested that I Use a timer instead of a sleeping thread, and I could not think of an explicit reason why each approach is better. What approach would you take and why?
Thanks,
Jeff

I will always prefer Thread.Sleep(xxxx).
We have facility to make the thread sleep for required seconds. Then why shold i use timer here.

Because, IIRC, a Sleeping thread won't respond to ANYTHING until it wakes up again. Do you want to wait 30 seconds for the thread to abort, or the service to stop, or its interface to respond, or ... ?

Exactly.
You cannot wake up a sleeping thread prematurely, so you have to wait for the thread to wake up before you can abort the thread etc.
If you used a timer, you could fire your processing method every 30 seconds and still be able to "fire" it in between conditionally.
e.g. Admin connecting to service, requesting another db-op on the same db with non-standard commands etc.

This is what I mean by string concantenation. Don't EVER do this! Use parameterized queries instead. What you doing now results in goofy error you have trouble nailing down and also REALLY opens your code up for SQL injection attacks. For examples, check out the SqlParameter class[^].

The Decimal type can't parse an empty string. It's as invalid a decimal as "Frank" is.
Either make sure you're only dealing with valid values in the TextBox before you parse it or catch the FormatException that will be thrown otherwise. You'll get better performance validating the input, though.
By the way, when Dave Kreskowiak asked you about using string concatenation to build your SQL statement a few posts down, this is what he meant.
A much better way is to use parameters in your query. The exact syntax varies from provider to provider, but here's an example:
OleDbCommand command = new OleDbCommand("Insert INTO test (Name,age,address) Values(?, ?, ?)");
command.Parameters.Add(new OleDbParameter("Name", _name));
command.Parameters.Add(new OleDbParameter("Age", _age));
command.Parameters.Add(new OleDbParameter("Address", _address));

you still have the same error in your code:
decimal.Parse(textBox2.Text.Trim());
decimal.Parse will throw a FormatException when the parameter is a blank string. Test for a blank string before the call to this method.

what i want to do is read some information from a text file straight into an access database
but i cant find any examples can anyone help with
some code or a site with that information
thx

I'm not sure but access should be able to use the ADO lib's. IF so its jsut a matter of using the ADO conection to insert a string into the Db.
this.SQLConn.ConnectionString = "data source=" + DS + "; initial catalog=Cat"; integrated security=true; persist security info=False; workstation id=" + WorkID + "; packet size=4096";
SQLConn.Open();
if(SQLConn.State == ConnectionState.Open)
{
//insert data
}
As far as reading a file use streamreader http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/cpref/html/frlrfsystemiostreamreaderclassctortopic2.asp[^]

Ara you sure that your sql sentence is well created? It must be a problem in your code, once creating the sql string. I think is not a problem with the DB and the required fields.
Why don't you put a pice of your code (where you create the sql sentence), with this information will be difficult to help you (almost for me  ).
Bye!
