View source for Using events in VB.NET

== Background ==
You can subscribe to events of [[controls|Dynamic RibbonX controls]] by using .NET events or .NET delegates. Here, we show how it can be done by using .NET events.
In general you need to take the following steps:
* Declare a member variable of the events source control type ''WithEvents''
* Use Visual Studio to insert the desired event stubs

== Example ==
In this example we will set up a UI that contains an rxButton control and subscribe to all its events.
* Add a new class to [[Creating a new project in VB.NET|your project]] and name it ''ButtonEventsUI''
* Add the following code to your class
<syntaxhighlight lang="vb" line>
</syntaxhighlight>
* Modify class ThisAddin in ThisAddin.vb as follows
<syntaxhighlight lang="vb" line>
</syntaxhighlight>
