AddHandler Statement
Associates an event with an event handler at run time.
AddHandler event, AddressOf eventhandler
Parts
event
The name of the event to handle.eventhandler
The name of a procedure that handles the event.
Remarks
The AddHandler and RemoveHandler statements allow you to start and stop event handling at any time during program execution.
The signature of the eventhandler procedure must match the signature of the event event.
The Handles keyword and the AddHandler statement both allow you to specify that particular procedures handle particular events, but there are differences. The AddHandler statement connects procedures to events at run time. Use the Handles keyword when defining a procedure to specify that it handles a particular event. For more information, see Handles Clause (Visual Basic).
Poznámka
For custom events, the AddHandler statement invokes the event's AddHandler accessor. For more information on custom events, see Event Statement.

Sub TestEvents()
Dim Obj As New Class1
' Associate an event handler with an event.

RemoveHandler Obj.Ev_Event, AddressOf EventHandler
' This event will not be handled.

End Sub
Sub EventHandler()
' Handle the event.
MsgBox("EventHandler caught event.")
End Sub
Public Class Class1
