In my .Net app, I keep running into the issue of a particular form/control which I expected to receive a keyboard event does not actually receive it. My debugging of this has not progressed much beyond caveman, eg setting breakpoints in all my controls, and seeing who ate a keyboard event that shouldn't have. There must be a better way...
I am attempting to use a Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Restore object to restore a SQL Server 2000 database. Just before I begin the restore operation, I change the text of a label so that the user knows what is going on.

What if I want to do this in m...

Is there any way I can do this? ...
