protected override void OnValidated(EventArgs e)

Protected Overrides Sub OnValidated(e As EventArgs)

Raising an event invokes the event handler through a delegate.

The OnValidated method also allows derived classes to handle the event without attaching a delegate. This is the preferred technique for handling the event in a derived class.

Notes to Inheritors:

When overriding OnValidated in a derived class, be sure to call the base class's OnValidated method so that registered delegates receive the event.
