Where are the menu handlers?

When I double click on a menu item (design time) the form opens
in the correct place for the menu handler, but I can't find the
AddHandler statements, where do I find them so that I can
change the names of these functions?

Hi Janie,

I think this is right :-)............

The handlers are 'attached' by default and do not need to be specifically
stated. If you view the Form Designer Generated Code you will see that these
objects are declared with a WithEvents statement and that is all that is
required.

You can change the actual name of the functions to whatever you like. You
will note that the actual 'event designator' at the end of the function does
not change, ie. Button1.Click. So, you can change the names of the functions
without any further concern.

HTH,

Phil

Use the AddHandler statement when you want transfer the control of the event
to another precedure of same signature.

Example:

Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
Handles MyBase.Load
'this line transfer the event control to another procedure
AddHandler MenuItem2.Click, AddressOf MyProcedureHandler
End Sub
Private Sub MyProcedureHandler(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs)
'write your code here
'...
End Sub

You can change the name of the function without changing any other code.
Event and event handler are connected by the 'Handles...' clause in the
event handler's head.
