Remarks

Set KeyPressEventArgs.Handled to true to cancel the KeyPress event. This keeps the control from processing the key press.

When you create a KeyPressEventHandler delegate, you identify the method that will handle the event. To associate the event with your event handler, add an instance of the delegate to the event. The event handler is called whenever the event occurs, unless you remove the delegate. For more information about handling events with delegates, see Handling and Raising Events.
