c# - Enter key pressed event handler

Question

I want to capture the text from the textbox when enter key is hit. I am using WPF/visual studio 2010/.NET 4. I dont know what event handler to be used in the tag ? I also want to do the same for maskedtextbox.

Answer 1

Either KeyDown or KeyUp.

TextBox tb = new TextBox();
tb.KeyDown += new KeyEventHandler(tb_KeyDown);

static void tb_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.KeyCode == Keys.Enter)
    {
        //enter key is down
    }
}
