I don't want to use combobox for this, so I need to restict textbox values. I can do it in KeyPress event, but I want something simpler...

When I want to change from A to I, from user's point of view I have to delete "A" and type "I". However, I can not delete, I can only type "I", which is not 100% intuitive. Anyway, I can live with this.

Also I tried to use KeyPress event already, but it didn't work.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
