How to: Detect When Text in a TextBox Has Changed
This example shows one way to use the xref:System.Windows.Controls.Primitives.TextBoxBase.TextChanged event to execute a method whenever the text in a xref:System.Windows.Controls.TextBox control has changed.
In the code-behind class for the [!INCLUDETLA2#tla_xaml] that contains the xref:System.Windows.Controls.TextBox control that you want to monitor for changes, insert a method to call whenever the xref:System.Windows.Controls.Primitives.TextBoxBase.TextChanged event fires. This method must have a signature that matches what is expected by the xref:System.Windows.Controls.TextChangedEventHandler delegate.
The event handler is called whenever the contents of the xref:System.Windows.Controls.TextBox control are changed, either by a user or programmatically.
Note
This event fires when the xref:System.Windows.Controls.TextBox control is created and initially populated with text.
Define TextBox control
In the [!INCLUDETLA#tla_xaml] that defines your xref:System.Windows.Controls.TextBox control, specify the xref:System.Windows.Controls.Primitives.TextBoxBase.TextChanged attribute with a value that matches the event handler method name.
