Controls updating Messages   Related Types This message was discovered on ASPFriends.com 'aspngcontrolsvb' list. Lasse Johansen Hi all I have been trying to make a custom control. What I wanted to make was a menulist(maybe it is already made, but this development is only to increase my knowledge, not to use the component). What I was trying to make is whenever the mouse moves over an item in the menulist the item becomes highlighted(just as if you are moving your mouse over a cell in a table(webpages) and the cell is changing color). Whenever the user wants to select something, he simply pushes the mouse over an item and an event will be sent, which can be caught to see which one was clicked. I divided this into 2 things: 1: A control having the complete list 2: Another control having 1: as a control, and a autoScroll set to true. This does so whenever the full menulist(1:) is not shown(because of the size of 2: is less than 1:), a scrollbar is shown. This is the one, the user can use! Everything seems to work fine. My problem is now when my control looses focus(I think), e.g. when I push another button on the form. When I go back to my own control, and pushes an item(even though this event is not implemented yet), the control scrolls to the top of my control(which is bad), and even worse, it misses to repaint the control. What can I have done wrong...? Which methods are called, when you push your control, and how can I prevent them for being called? Thanks in advance Lasse Johansen Reply to this message...        Lasse Johansen Found out that it scrolls to the top of 2: which is actually my problem... how come is that?

That is why I have tried to break it down, so now the example is very simple: Start to make a new project by choosing Visual Basic Projects->Windows Control Library In this new project the size of the control(UserControl1) = 150, 150. You then drag a normal listbox into it. You fill this listbox with 15 values, and make the size of the listbox = 120,200. You will now see that the listbox is bigger than the bounds of UserControl1. To compensate for that, you set the AutoScroll = true of UserControl1. Build UserControl1. In a new Project Visual Basic Projects->Windows Application you now add UserControl1. You also add a button(Button1), so that will give you 2 controls(UserControl1 and Button1). Now try to build your app. Scroll down, and select element 15 in your UserControl1. Then push the button, and then push element 14 in your UserControl. You will now see that when pushing the 14th element, the UserControl scrolls to the top.... WHY?
