Examples

The following code example uses ControlRemoved to remove a control from a form and displays the name of the removed control in a MessageBox.

   // 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.
private:
   void Form1_Load( Object^ /*sender*/, System::EventArgs^ /*e*/ )

      // to the event-handler methods.
      // ControlRemoved and ControlAdded are not available at design time.

   }

   }

   {
      MessageBox::Show( String::Format( "The control named {0} has been removed from the form.", e->Control->Name ) );

   // Removes the previously added TextBox from the form.
