public:
bool Validate();public bool Validate ();member this.Validate : unit -> boolPublic Function Validate () As BooleanReturns
true if validation is successful; otherwise, false. If called from the Validating or Validated event handlers, this method will always return false.
Remarks
The Validate method validates the last child control that is not validated and its ancestors up through, but not including, the current container control. This overloaded version always performs validation, regardless of the value of the AutoValidate property of the control's parent. Therefore use it to unconditionally force validation.

Remarks
The Validate method validates the last child control that is not validated and its ancestors up through, but not including, the current container control. This overloaded version performs validation based on the following conditions:
If the
checkAutoValidateparameter istrue, validation always occurs for child controls that are not validated.If the
checkAutoValidateparameter isfalse, validation occurs only if the AutoValidate property of the control's parent is enabled.
