Question

I am trying to aid another programmer with a page called Default.aspx with a code-behind section, and unfortunately I am at a bit of a loss.

 Partial Class _Default  Inherits OverheadClass  'A bunch of global variables here'   Private Sub page_load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Eventarts) Handles Me.Load  'Function goes here' 

And in the OverheadClass we have

 Public Sub Sub_OverheadClass_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e as System.EventArgs) Handles MyClass.Load 

The desired effect is when the OverheadClass is inherited, we want its load to run before the load event on the page runs. There is probably a very simple answer to this that I am missing.

Edit: I forgot to note that we write in VB, and not C# as many of you are used to for ASP.

You should be able to override the OnLoad and call the base class’s OnLoad first, then your class, for example:

C# Version

protected override void OnLoad(EventArgs e) {     base.OnLoad(e);      // Do some stuff here } 

VB Version

Protected Overrides Sub OnLoad(ByVal e As System.EventArgs)      MyBase.OnLoad(e)      ' Do some stuff here  End Sub
