  Hi, Anthery

  About first question: press space key on button will raise the click event of it.

  This function is designed in ButtonBase class which Button derived from. In ButtonBase class there is method to process the keydown event.

  Here it is:

  protected override void OnKeyDown(KeyEventArgs kevent) { if (kevent.KeyData == Keys.Space) { ... } base.OnKeyDown(kevent); }

  Solution:

  Make a control derive the button control and override this method.

  Step 1: Create project from "Windows Control Library"

  Step 2: Create the control derived from Button

  Step 3: Override the OnKeyDown method

  Example code:

  public class CustomButton : Button
      {
          public UserControl1():base()
          { }
          protected override void OnKeyDown(KeyEventArgs kevent)
          {
              //base.OnKeyDown(kevent);
          }
      }

  Step 4: Compile the project, and a dll file is generated

  Step 5: Reference the dll file in your windows application as a userControl

               ToolBox --> Choose Item--> Browse...

  Then you can use the Custom Button without raising the click event by pressing space key.

  Thank you
