NextButtonCausesValidation - Wizard for Windows Forms Forum

Posted 20 years ago by Greg - Frederica, DE, USA

From Readme file:
7/13/2003 - Version 2.00.0076
"Added example of TextBox validation using an ErrorProvider to the sample application."

I see where you added the ErrorProvider validation to the Description field in the sample app. But I can still click on the Next button w/o filling in the Description field. <IMG SRC="mad.gif" border="0">

Is the NextButton NOT causing validation like it is suppose to? <IMG SRC="confused.gif" border="0">

Thanks,
Greg

Hi Greg,

I believe it all works fine in .NET 1.0 however in 1.1 Microsoft changed the internals of how the .NET controls do validation and introduced bugs. The bug is not a Wizard bug and I have reproduced it in a project that just has custom UserControls and no Wizards whatsoever.

Now that SyntaxEditor 2.5 is released, we're going to look into some possible updates for Wizard, maybe even making it no longer use UserControl as a base class. We would like to work around the validation bug by Microsoft since that is a key feature that most developers would like to use.

Thanks for the quick reply.

The latest build of this product (v24.1.0) was released 7 months ago, which was after the last post in this thread.
