Unable to detect a click on a pushbutton

[Al Murphy]

Hi,

I've written a very basic windows application with a pushbutton and
a listbox. When the user clicks on the button it should display a
message in the listbox. Sounds simple right? Well mine isn't working.
No message appears. Can anyone help please? I'm at my wits end...

Al,

I don't see any code that is linking the button1_Click and button2_Click
methods to the Click events on the button. You should go to your buttons
and click on the little lightning bold in the property grid. It will show
you the events that the button has. For button1, set the Click event to
button1_Click, and for button2, set the Click event to button2_Click. It
should work then.

Hope this helps.
