Caution

Emulates the behavior of the Visual Basic 6.0 ValidateControls method.

public:
 static void ValidateControls(System::Windows::Forms::ContainerControl ^ Form);
public static void ValidateControls (System.Windows.Forms.ContainerControl Form);
[System.Obsolete("Microsoft.VisualBasic.Compatibility.* classes are obsolete and supported within 32 bit processes only. http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=160862")]
public static void ValidateControls (System.Windows.Forms.ContainerControl Form);
static member ValidateControls : System.Windows.Forms.ContainerControl -> unit

Form
ContainerControl

The ContainerControl where the control is parented.

Attributes

Remarks

In Visual Basic 6.0, the ValidateControls method was used to force the Validate event for the control that has focus when a form is closed; if the Validate event fails, an error was raised. In Visual Basic, the ValidateControls method is replaced by the Validate method, which returns true or false.

This function is used by the upgrade tools to emulate the Visual Basic 6.0 behavior.

Note

Functions and objects in the Microsoft.VisualBasic.Compatibility.VB6 namespace are provided for use by the tools for upgrading from Visual Basic 6.0 to Visual Basic 2008. In most cases, these functions and objects duplicate functionality that you can find in other namespaces in the .NET Framework. They are necessary only when the Visual Basic 6.0 code model differs significantly from the .NET Framework implementation.
