Nelson,
I think I understand your question better now but I am not sure I have the answer. Keep in mind that I am very new to C# so this is a case where a blind is leading a blind <g>.

It seems to me that to prevent an object from executing default behaviour you have to assign a delegate method for the event in the class where object/control is used. Then in the method of the delegate event you can override the behaviour. Does it make sense?
