[RESOLVED] Need help converting CSharp to VB.net

[MicLovin]

I have been trying to design a custom tabcontrol in vb.net used a codeproject example to develop the said tabcontrol but the example is in C# I have converted all parts and theres only one error i cant seem to work around could you guys help?

void ColorTabControl_ControlAdded(object sender, ControlEventArgs e)
        {
            if (e.Control.GetType() == typeof(TabPage))
            {
                e.Control.Font = new Font(e.Control.Font, e.Control.Font.Style & ~FontStyle.Bold);
            }
        }

Private Sub ColorTab_ControlAdded(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.ControlEventArgs) Handles MyBase.ControlAdded
' ERROR: 'is' expected                            \/ 
        If e.Control.GetType() = typeOf(Tabpage) Then
            e.Control.Font = New Font(e.Control.Font, e.Control.Font.Style & FontStyle.Bold)
        End If
    End Sub

Try

If TypeOf e.Control Is TabPage Then ....

I wouldn't even bother to check what type of control it is.

ColorTab is a tabcontrol right? TabControls can only have 1 type of control added to them, and that is tabpages. If you try to add any control to a tabcontrol, that is not a tabpage, an exception will occur telling you what I am telling you. So the ControlAdded event of a tabcontrol WILL NEVER FIRE unless a tabpage was actually added to the tabcontrol, so there is no need to check that it is that type. It will always be a tabpage.

The 'keyword overlap' can be confusing.

The VB equivalent is:

Private Sub ColorTabControl_ControlAdded(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As ControlEventArgs)
	If e.Control.GetType() Is GetType(TabPage) Then
		e.Control.Font = New Font(e.Control.Font, e.Control.Font.Style And (Not FontStyle.Bold))
	End If
End Sub
