Error message for text boxes

I keep getting the following error message when setting up text boxes.

Error 'txtEmployeeID' is not declared. It may be inaccessible due to its protection level.

This is my code:

VB

Private Sub TextBox2_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
    Dim HomePhone As String
    HomePhone = txtHomePhone.Text
End Sub

Any help you can give would be appreciated.

There is no 'txtEmployeeID' in your code.... where is it..

Please show the section of code that actually has txtEmployeeID in it. Where is it supposedly defined?

your handles statement is missing the handles Textbox2.TextChanged

VB

Private Sub TextBox2_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)

Note: This normally happens when you delete the control from the form, it removes the Handles event in the sub's header.

It should have something like this

VB

Private Sub TextBox1_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.TextChanged

   End Sub
