Dear all,

Thanks for all your support so far. But I have a nother question. If I put a datepicker in a dialog box how can I get the menu to pop up and navigate it by only using the keyboard? I tried EnableKeyboardNavigation but it didnt seem to do anything extra.

Thanks again

Steve

Hi,

I am not sure what you mean by "menu" and how it is related to the dialog or DatePicker though. If you mean the DatePicker drop down, then you can not use keyboard on that. Keyboard navigation on the DatePicker drop down is useless because it often takes too many key strokes to select a date from the drop down, so user will just enter the date in the textbox directly.

Thanks

sorry I did mean the pop up calendar on enter. That is a shame its not an option though as I often set defaults for the dates and my end users work much faster on the keyboard rather than switching between keyboard and mouse. If the date is wrong it is only often by a day or so. I understand what you are saying but it is the switching between the two which causes the loss in speed. Please consider though.

Thanks anyway as always
