Events

When do we use them?Example

• When I want the value in the textbox printed on a label after the button is clicked, I create an Event that reads from the textbox and writes on a label

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Dim var As String var = TextBox1.Text Label1.Text = var End Sub

Created by Alia Al-Abdulkarim 2008

Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

Dim a As Integer = 0

End Sub

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

TextBox1.Text = a

End Sub
