When you click a button in a
UserControl control in a Microsoft Windows Forms application that is built on the Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1, the
Click event for the button occurs even though another
UserControl control is set to cancel form validation.
This problem occurs because of the way events are processed and because of the way validation occurs for controls that are in focus in Windows Forms applications.

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section.
For example, consider the following scenario:
- The form contains a UserControl control that is named UserControlA and a UserControl control that is named UserControlB.
- UserControlA contains a TextBox control. The CancelEventArgs.Cancel property is set to True in the Validating event of the TextBox control.
- UserControlB contains a Button control. An implementation of the Click event is provided for the Button control.
- When you run the application, you set the focus to the TextBox control in the UserControlA control. Then, you click the Button control in the UserControlB control.
In this scenario, the
Click event for the
Button control in
UserControlB occurs, even though you set the
CancelEventArgs.Cancel property to
True. The
CancelEventArgs.Cancel property is in the
Validating event of the
TextBox control for the
UserControlA control.
