Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use the KeysConverter class to convert a KeyCode to a String. This example assumes that you have a TextBox named TextBox1 on a Form named Form1.

public partial class Form1 : Form
{
    public Form1()
    {
        InitializeComponent();

        this.textBox1.KeyPress += new System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventHandler(this.KeyPressWork);
        this.textBox1.KeyDown += new System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventHandler(this.KeyDownWork);
    }

    private void KeyDownWork(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
    {
        MessageBox.Show(e.KeyCode.ToString(), "KeyDown");

        KeysConverter kc = new KeysConverter();
        MessageBox.Show(kc.ConvertToString(e.KeyCode), "KeyDown");
    }

    private void KeyPressWork(object sender, KeyPressEventArgs e)
    {
        MessageBox.Show(e.KeyChar.ToString(), "KeyPress");
    }
}

Public Class Form1

    Private Sub KeyDownWork(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) _
        Handles TextBox1.KeyDown

        MessageBox.Show(e.KeyCode, "KeyDown")

        MessageBox.Show(e.KeyCode.ToString(), "KeyDown")

        Dim kc As KeysConverter = New KeysConverter()
        MessageBox.Show(kc.ConvertToString(e.KeyCode), "KeyDown")
    End Sub


    Private Sub KeyPressWork(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) _
        Handles TextBox1.KeyPress

        MessageBox.Show(e.KeyChar, "KeyPress")
        MessageBox.Show(e.KeyChar.ToString(), "KeyPress")
    End Sub
End Class

Remarks

Most commonly, the KeysConverter type converter is used to convert Keys instances to and from their corresponding localized String representations.

Constructors

KeysConverter()

Initializes an instance of the KeysConverter class.

Methods
