Cool textbox trick on the Compact Framework

Published Fri, Jun 25 2004 16:05 | William
Peter Foot just posted this really cool little trick to simulate automatically pressing the shift key on the SIP. The code is straightforward but it accomplishes the task at hand very well. When I first saw the post I was off searching for something to P/Inovke, and all the time there was a simple solution right in front of me. The UK certainly has no shortage of really brilliant CF programmers, I'm starting to develop an inferiority complex ;--). BTW, if you haven't checked out Peter's work, you may want to check it out at InTheHand

Brian:

I know this is a dumb question, but I saw a reference to cold fusion as well. With the CF, are you referring to the CF or cold fusion? At first I thought it was the CF you were referring to but then I thought maybe it's Cold Fusion. I haven't used Cold Fusion so I can't comment on it but obviously I'm a bit biased about the CF and it's basically the child I never had. (Actually, ADO.NET is the child I always wanted but never had, and the CF is his/her cute little brother). Kim - if you are reading this, please note that the whole Kid thing is just a metaphor -- please don't get any ideas ;-)
