Hello

called the sub ?

If you use a common handler for controls of different type:

\\\
Select Case True
Case TypeOf sender Is Button
Dim SourceControl As Button = DirectCast(send er, Button)
...
Case TypeOf sender Is ListBox
Dim SourceControl As ListBox = DirectCast(send er, ListBox)
...
End Select
///

Romy,

A sender can be any object. In the case of the control you know it mostly
therefore you can than set forever if it is by instance a button
\\\
directcast(send er,button1).Per formclick
///
However if you need by instance the text from a control than this is as well
enough
\\\
directcast(send er,control).Tex t
///
Text is in every control.

I hope this helps,

Cor

Hi. I'm trying to figure out how to properly start and stop threads from a windows form.

In the code below, clicking on the button ButtonChangeCursor changes the form's cursor to a WaitCursor. Clicking the button ButtonRestoreCursor changes the form's cursor back to its original cursor.

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
