Using Visual Basic, to bind the methods with dynamic controls using delegates. See the following example:

dim b as new Button()
b.Text = "New Button"
AddHandler b.Click, AddressOf b_Click

'where b_click will be defined as 

sub b_Click(ByVal sender as Object, ByVal e as EventArg)

End Sub

Hi ramll

What is the exact benefit of using Address of in coding ?

As we know, AddressOf creates a procedure delegate instance that references the specific procedure,

The AddressOf operator creates a function delegate that points to the function specified by procedurename. When the specified procedure is an instance method then the function delegate refers to both the instance and the method. Then, when the function delegate is invoked the specified method of the specified instance is called.

hope it helps you,

With regards
