Windows Forms Input Validation with Validating Event and ErrorProvier Control

Checking whether value is entered into a control and preventing focus to go out if no value is entered.

private void txtName_Validating(object sender, CancelEventArgs e)
{
    if (txtName.Text == "")
    {
        errorProvider1.SetError(txtName, "Name cannot be blank");
        e.Cancel = true;
    }
    else
        errorProvider1.SetError(txtName, "");
}

C# has internal parsing routines that also work nicely.

double x;

bool valid = double.TryParse( initialValue.Text, out x );
