How do I capture the enter key in a windows forms combobox

Question

How do I capture the enter key in a windows forms combo box when the combobox is active?

I\'ve tried to listen to KeyDown and KeyPress and I\'ve created a subclass a

Answer 1

protected void Form_KeyPress(object sender, KeyPressEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.KeyChar == 13)  // or Key.Enter or Key.Return
    {
        MessageBox.Show("Enter pressed", "KeyPress Event");                
    }
}

Don't forget to set KeyPreview to true on the form.
