hi how is it possible to return an array from this:

private void btnResult_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
ArrayList arlist = new ArrayList();

arlist.Add(examResults);

return arlist;
}

Many Thanks

You can't; an event handler cannot return a value. An event can potentially invoke many methods in different objects, if the event handlers allowed return values, each could potentially return a different value so your event would have multiple return values.

Where are you trying to "return" the arraylist to? What were you hoping to achieve, as i think you may have misunderstood how the return is being handled.
