Handle

[Guest]

I am converting a project from VB6 to VB.Net. In vb6, I created a textbox array on the form, and depending on the table querying, I would load new textbox's based on the fields in the table. I would store the index in a user defined type fldInfo array that also stored the field name. Then, when the user double clicked a textbox, depending on the field name stored in type fldInfo, I would perform some function such as opening a dialog box

In vb.net, how would I perform this same function without the indexes? I know that you set the Handles on a function to handle a double click. Is it possible to add handles at runtime?

Addhandler.

Yes, use the Addhandler statement.

Add the handler using 'AddHandler' and have a look at the handler's
'sender' parameter to get a reference to the control that raised the
event.

Just don't forget to set the name property accordingly... It caused me 3
hours of nightmares
