Media Center

[3dmaker]

I am trying to make an app like Media Center on Windows XP. I have everythign done exept the cool buttons. I have regular buttons that I cannot control by pressing the down/up keys. How do I get them to work??

[Phreak]

What do you actually want that the buttons do if you press the
up/down button ? Want to switch to another button on the form ?

I never used Media Center, so thats why i ask

Yeah so basically lets say I have 5 buttons on my form. When I load it up I want one of them to be selected, then when I press down it selects the button below it.

hey yaall!!!!
this is my forst post in this forums

ok enough with theese. lets start helping.
-----------------------------------------
make a button with a cool img or a customcontrol with imports from button, and some additional features.
then:

Private Sub Button1_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles Button1.KeyDown
        If e.KeyValue = Keys.Down Then Me.Button2.Focus()
    End Sub
 
 Private Sub Button2_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles Button2.KeyDown
        If e.KeyValue = Keys.Down Then Me.Button3.Focus()
    End Sub
 
//etc...

Wish me a good start!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
