METHODS

A method executes code associated with a control. The method can be a function that returns a value or a subroutine that does something without returning a value.

Because methods execute code, you cannot invoke them at design time. You can only invoke them by using code at run time.

Appendix A summarizes the Control class’s most useful methods. Controls that inherit from the Control class also inherit these methods unless they have overridden the Control class’s behavior.
