    // Creates a new collection, and assigns to it the events for button1.
    EventDescriptorCollection events = TypeDescriptor.GetEvents(button1);
 
    // Creates an enumerator.
    IEnumerator ie = events.GetEnumerator();
 
    // Prints the name of each event in the collection.
    Object myEvent;

       myEvent = ie.Current;
       textBox1.Text += myEvent.ToString() + '\n';
