This article will explain how to declare and use the C# events in your application as Event Control. You can design your event control in couple of mints, making your event as control will be easy for GUI developers to implement events in client side.

Here are the steps:

1. Create one Windows Application Project

3. Declare your delegate in your Event Control under your namespace.
   C#

   public delegate void SampleDelegate(string Str);

4. Now declare your event inside your Event Control class.
   C#

   public event SampleDelegate Sample;

5. Also add the FireTheEvent method to fire the event.
6. Build the project.
7. Go to Form, then ToolBox, add the Event Control using “Add/Remove Items” menu by right clicking on the tool box.
8. Drag and drop the new control. Using the property window of the control you can easily implement the Event method in your application.

10. Run the application and click on your button, you should see your Event firing.
