user control and events

Hi,
I've got a user control with a method called Collapse. I would like
that when this method is called (it's only called inside the user
control, never by the client), an event can be caught.
So my client form can catch an event such as OnCollapse.
HOw can I do that ? Syntax ?

Thx

Hi in your usercontrol declare OnCollapse as a public event
Public Event yourEvent()

Then inside the method collapse call the event with raiseevent like this:
RaiseEvent OnCollapse

Now on your form your usercontrol has got an extra event, called OnCollapse
which you can catch

Hi,

Add an event to the usercontrol that you raise in collapse
procedure.
