public bool Handled { get; set; }

Public Property Handled As Boolean

Property Value

Type	Description
Boolean

true if it was handled and the default dialog doesn’t need to be shown; otherwise, false.

Remarks

If the event parameter’s Handled property is set to true within a handler, then the default dialog will not be shown. Otherwise, the default dialog will be invoked after the custom actions within the handler have been performed.

Use the Handled property set to true with the ShowFormEventArgs.DialogResult parameter, to substitute a standard dialog with a custom one.

Example

This example demonstrates how handle the RichEditControl.SearchFormShowing event to replace the standard Find and Replace dialog with a custom dialog.

    {
        e.DialogResult = form.ShowDialog();
        e.Handled = true;
    }
}
