I would like to programatically go to the next page with out the user clicking the next button. I tried the PerformNextButtonClick but that didn't work. I have tried Moveto, that didn't work either.

So how do you do it?

Hi Jeremy,

It will only work that way if the Next button is enabled when you execute that method. Is it? Also, if it is, you could be cancelling the switch in the NextButtonClick event.

Another way to do it is increment the Wizard.SelectedIndex property.

The next button is disabled, but i enable it right before i want it to go to the next page.

Here is my code.

<I have to validate a login to another application here, once that is done I just want to go to the next page "wizardOptions" >

wizardActLogin.NextButtonEnabled=ActiproSoftware.Wizard.WizardButtonEnabledDefault.True;
this.wizard1.SelectedPage = this.wizardOptions;
wizard1.SelectedIndex++;

wizard1.SelectedIndex++; Didnt work either.

I think somewhere you are cancelling the page change, in one of the event handlers. I just tested all these methods and they work fine.

For instance, open our sample project and change this event handler:
private void infoWebSiteLabel_LinkClicked(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.LinkLabelLinkClickedEventArgs e) {
    //    System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(((LinkLabel)sender).Text);
    this.Wizard.PerformNextButtonClick();
}
The run the sample and click the web site link on the Welcome page. It will change pages fine. That works and it also works if I replace the PerformNextButtonClick with SelectedIndex++.

Look through the various event handlers in your app because you are either cancelling the page change or forcing it to another page.
