BUG: Incorrect events are listed in the Event drop-down list for a TextBox control

On This Page

SYMPTOMS

The event list of the TextBox control for Microsoft Windows forms does not display the following public event handlers that are documented in the Microsoft Developer Network (MSDN) library:
  • Click
  • ControlAdded
  • ControlRemoved
  • Disposal
  • GetFocus
  • HandleCreated
  • HandleDestroyed
  • Invalidated
  • LostFocus
  • MouseWheel
  • Paint

RESOLUTION

To resolve this behavior, write event handlers manually for the events that do not appear in the event list.

To create a Click event handler:
  1. Create a new Visual Basic .NET or Visual Basic 2005 Windows Application project.
  2. Name the project SampleApplication, and then click OK.
  3. Add a TextBox control to the form.
  4. To add a Click event handler, add the following code to the existing code.
    Public Class Form1
        Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form
    ...
        Private Sub TextBox1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.Click
            MsgBox("Clicked TextBox")
        End Sub
    ...
    End Class
    Note Events are not auto-populated. For more information about the control that gets parameter information for events, visit the MSDN Web site.
  5. Run the application.
  6. Click the TextBox control. A message box appears.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a bug in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section.

MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce the Behavior

  1. Create a new Visual Basic .NET or Visual Basic 2005 Windows Application project.
  2. On the form, add a TextBox control.
  3. Verify the public events that are available for the TextBox control in the event list.
