Control Property (ValidationErrorEventArgs)

Returns the control whose value failed validation, or null if the validation entity is not a control, or more than one control was validated. Applicable only when IsSingleEntityValidation returns true.

Syntax

Visual Basic

'Declaration
 
Public ReadOnly Property Control As Control

C#

public Control Control {get;}

Remarks

Note: In the case where the validation was triggered by one of the Validate method overloads which could potentially involve more than one control, the Control property returns null. In this case, a reference to each control that failed validation can be obtained by iterating the Errors collection returned by the Validation property, and accessing the Control property of the ValidationSettings instance returned by that ValidationResult.

The Control and Editor properties are mutually exclusive in that when one returns a valid reference, the other must return null.
