protected override void OnLostFocus(EventArgs e)

Protected Overrides Sub OnLostFocus(e As EventArgs)

Raising an event invokes the event handler through a delegate.

The OnLostFocus method also allows derived classes to handle the event without attaching a delegate. This is the preferred technique for handling the event in a derived class.

Notes to Inheritors:

When overriding OnLostFocus in a derived class, be sure to call the base class's OnLostFocus method so that registered delegates receive the event.
