Prevent numeric increment/decrement buttons from incrementing by 10, 100...

[Axelwlt]

When the cursor in the numeric field of a numeric control is for example after the 10s/100s digit, the increment/decrement buttons have a step of 10/100. How can I prevent that? I always want a step of 1.

I tried setting the Data Entry Increment property to 1 but that did not change this behaviour..

Put a transparent decor on the numeric control, partially block the button, so that user can only click the up/down button.

Thank you for the idea but I also would like to let the user enter the value with the keyboard.

I believe the only way to do what you want is to catch the keyboard "arrow up" and "arrow down" events, discard them and programmatically increment or decrement the control value.
