Wes -> Accessing On Screen Keyboard with a Modal Form (4/10/2008 7:28:46 AM)

Hi,

hopefully this is an easy one [:)]

I am displaying a non full screen modal form on my WM5.0 device. However, every time I show the form the keyboard icon in the bottom right of the screen disappears. The only way to gain access to it is to first, click and display the keyboard and then open the form.

Is there a method of accessing the keyboard when showing a non full screen form or if not is there some code to display the keyboard (which i could then do before loading the modal form).

PS I am still operating in VS2003, moving to VS2005 next week!

Thanks,
Wes.

Hi,
add an inputpanel control to your form, and enable it on a getfocus, disable it on a lostfocus, or enable/disable as you need it
