How can I stop expanding the nodes when user presses the * on the numeric keypad?
There are at least two options to do it: • Using the ExpandOnKeys property. Specifies a value that indicates whether the control expands or collapses a node when user presses arrow keys. If the ExpandOnKeys property is False, the ‘*’ on numeric keypad has no effect. In the same time, left arrow key, ‘-‘ on the numeric keypad, right arrow key, ‘+’ on the numeric keypad will not expand or collapse the focused item. • Using the KeyDown event handler like follows: Private Sub Grid1_KeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer) If KeyCode = vbKeyMultiply Then If (Shift = 0) Then KeyCode = 0 End If End If End Sub The code still allows you to use the CTRL + ‘*’ on the numeric keypad to expand nodes. In order to disable completely the ‘*’ feature you have to comment the ‘Shift = 0’ statement.
