Examples

The following code example demonstrates the use of the ControlAdded and ControlRemoved events. The example requires that two Button controls are added to the form and connected to the addControl_Click and removeControl_Click event handling methods.

   // This example demonstrates the use of the ControlAdded and
   // ControlRemoved events. This example assumes that two Button controls
   // are added to the form and connected to the addControl_Click and
   // removeControl_Click event-handler methods.

      // to the event-handler methods.

   }
