events between forms

[Crash893]

I have a mdi parent form and a logon form (among others)

I'm trying to create an event that will be triggered from the logon form when the users "logon"

the code i have so far is

in the logon form

public event EventHandler Authenticated;

and in the main form

logon newForm = new logon();
            newForm.Authenticated += new EventHandler(?????????);
            newForm.MdiParent = this;

my two questions are

1) what should i put under the event handler and (makred in ???)
2) and how would i create a "stub" for it in the main form

i.e

private void ???????(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
           
        }

thanks if you can point me in the right direction

in your third code block, give your function a name....replacing the ???s that are there
Then, use that name in the second code block to replace the ????s that are there....

Name of the handler isn't as important as the signature of the handler. You can call it Crash893BiggestHitsOfAllTimeThroughOutHistory ... just as long as the parameters of it match the event's signature.

soooo

logon newForm = new logon();
            newForm.Authenticated += new EventHandler(crash893);
            newForm.MdiParent = this;

my two questions are



i.e

private void crash893(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
           //whatever code here
        }

should put me in the right place?
