Hi Bruce: When you change a control's name there may be several places within the code including code not usually displayed where the original name is used like during the initialization of the form.
When you change the name in the designer the IDE automatically goes through your code and changes all occurances of that control's name so things stay in sync.
You can change the name in the Properties Window and that will also propagate the change throughout your code.
I forget off hand if you change the name of the class in the text editor in the ide if the change ispropagated and I usually change the name in the Properties Window.
One thing to watch out for is that if you change the name I have seen a situation where while the name of the control is changed in the vb.net code class for the control in the form but the event handler line is not changed but just removed and the code didnt throw an error.
So:
Private Sub MyControl_TextBox_Click stays the same but the
clause "Handles MyControl.Click " is gone.
So when I change a controls name I check in the code-behind (the vb.net code block for the form) to ensure the handles claus is there.
It doesnt seem to matter if the sub name MyControl_Click(xxx) is changed during event handling for a control.
So that is just another little thing to watch out for when mucking with changing a control's name.
