How can I programmatically generate keyDown events in Silverlight?

Question

I have 2 textBoxes. First is visible the second is not. When keyDown event fires on first textBox I want to fire the same event on 2nd textBox, so it would react same as if user was typing in 2nd textBox.

How can I do that?

EDIT: I know you can do this in Windows.Forums and I was hoping that it can be done here too.

My goal is to have 2 textBoxes with different texts in it, but when user types something in 1st textBox same text should appear in 2nd textBox.

Example: Text in first textBox:

<home>
 <number>75</number>
 <client>John</client>
</home>

Text in second textBox

<home>
 <number id="123">75</number>
 <client id="345">John</client>
</home>

Now user types some new text in first textBox like:

<home>
 <number>150</number>
 <client>John</client>
</home>

And now this new text should appear in 2nd textBox like:

<home>
 <number id="123">150</number>
 <client id="345">John</client>
</home>

And this is only an example for changing values. User can also add new elements, delete them, change order and so on.

I have tried with mapping KeyEventArgs but I loose control for non-standard keys like: "šđžćč<>"

Answer 1

You cannot mimic the keyboard in the way you seem to want.

Answer 2

What you need is add an eventhandler to the textboxes and in that eventhandler update the second textbox value based on the first one and vice versa.

TextChanged

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.controls.textbox.textchanged(v=VS.95).aspx

private void FirstTextBox_TextChanged(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
    SecondTextBox.Text = FirstTextBox.Text;
}
