I made a page with a codebehind in ASP.NET C# in VS2008 and it autogenerates a PageLoad event method, of course. Well, what if I want to add methods for more events besides PageLoad? I w...

I am using Visual Studio Team System 2008 and see it has an Icon Editor and support for icons (including favicons) rolled into the product.
