Remarks
The Activate event occurs under the following circumstances:
When a page is first requested, the first form is activated.
When the ActiveForm property of the page is set programmatically.
When the user navigates to a form through a Link control whose target is a form.
This event's position in the event chain makes it very important for binding child controls to data sources or for setting a form property that can be inherited by all child controls.
