Wish Orphaned Object_Event Subs

[RichardN]

Occasionally I make a boo-boo and describe an Object with one name and then describe the...

Sub Object_Event with a very similar but not identical name....

The result is benign, no errors, it simply does not work and I stare at the screen for some minutes before I recognise that the Sub is not firing at all due to my error.

Sub [Space][Tab] is very useful but we are not all perfect! Is it possible to flag Sub Object_Event where there is no matching Object ???

This is more complicated than it might seem.

1. Many types including your own classes can raise events.
2. The event name can be set in the code.

Dim b As Button
b.Initialize("bbbbb")
'or
b.Initialize("bb" & i)

Erel... I take your point although we do tend to take a lot more care when defining (out of the ordinary) events from class modules. Maybe you might look at it the other way around.... The event subs associated with views are a finite number, they can only be associated with a Global declaration of an item in a designer layout or an Initialize statement. If a Sub xxxx_event can be matched to neither then flag it ????
