Dumb IDE Question - Inserting an Event Handler

[Marcus Smaby]

With the rich IDE on VB.net 2003, I was wondering if there is an easy way to
set the event handler function for a hand-coded object (SqlConnection for
example). I know that if I dim it withevents I can use the drop-down to
insert the event-handler template. But if I am not using the withevents, but
instead wiring things with the addhandler command, is there a way to get the
template inserted? Right now I am putting a 'dim withevents ..... as new
.....' just so I can get the event handler function template and then
deleting the 'dim withevents .... '

Just curious.

TIA

After the object is set you can use "AddHandler" to handle the object's
events rather then dim withevents

Hello Marcus,

As you know (also suggested by Mike), the Handles/WithEvents keyword and
the AddHandler statement are two common methods to create an event handler.
Based on my experience and research, I did not aware thre is other easier
way.

In the meantime, I believe the following KB article is helpful:

Please feel free to let me know if you have any problems or concerns.

Have a nice day!
