Inherited usercontrol...

[MrPolite]

I'm making my own usercontrol, inherited from TextBox...
I have overrided the OnTextChanged event to do some stuff. Now if I use this control on a form, the TextChange event will never fire
what should I do?

Try calling the MyBase.OnTextChanged from inside the Overrode one. I think you may need to call it first before your code, too.

there is no such method that I can call
doesnt show up in the intellisense... maybe it's becasue I overrode it?

It doesn't show up in the intellisense for some reason but its there and the intellisense kicks back in for the parameters once you type it. Sounds like a bit of a bug.

Protected Overrides Sub OnTextChanged(ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
        MyBase.OnTextChanged(e)
        'your code here
    End Sub
