Question

When I double click on my text boxes in the designed, it creates a method auto-magically for me. Since I wish the same things to occur in any of the cases, I simply call an auxiliary method from each, like in the code below.

private void TextBox_1_TextChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
  TextChanged();
}

private void TextBox_2_TextChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
  TextChanged();
}

private void TextChanged(object sender, EventArgs e) { ... }

Now I’d like to know if there’s a way (other than going into my design file (which, according to the information in it, shouldn’t be attempted to) to connect the actions listeners to the same method and skip the detour via the automatically generated ones.

In the properties fold-out (most often to the right of your screen) you should have a thunder icon. That’s where all the events are referable.

If you don’t see the properties, select the regarded component (the text box in your case), right-mouse it and pick “properties” in the context menu.
