I making a custom button, and I need to add a PreviewKeyDown event, whenever i add a Click event. What i got so far is:

public new event EventHandler Click { 
    add { 
        base.Click += value; 
        foreach (Control i in Controls) { 
            i.Click += value; 
        } 
    } 
    remove { 
        base.Click -= value; 
        foreach (Control i in Controls) { 
            i.Click -= value; 
        } 
    } 
} 

this adds the click event to everything, but i need to add one method to a click event AND a PreviewKeyDown event at the same time in winforms. its for a custom button, so it can perform a method when someone hits enter

if something is unclear just comment and ill clarify

    Completed code:

    public new event EventHandler Click {
    add {
    base.Click += value;
    base.PreviewKeyDown += new PreviewKeyDownEventHandler(value);
    foreach (Control i in Controls) {
    i.Click += value;
    i.PreviewKeyDown += new PreviewKeyDownEventHandler(value);
    }
    }
    remove {
    //same code with -= instead of +=, but the previewkeydown event is excluded because i couldnt find a way to remove it.
    }
    }
