Hi
Just after a bit of clarification.
When you type sender. intellisense lists 5 methods and yet if you type sender.Left or sender.top these will work.
Why don't these properties show up as available for use via intellisense.
I only discovered you could use these properties when I read a tutorial on this site.

Thanks

Because sender is type Object at that time, and those shown are the one available in Object class. When you pass it as Object, intellisense cant tell what type it is except that it is object and so it will show you object properties. If you need to get all available properties, parse a sender to its appropriate type.
It dont give error because Vb change it for you at the time, but consider as a good behavior to change to its specific type before using other Object's subclass methods. This is what we do when we deal with polymorphism.

Makes perfect sense.
Thanks.
