Managing Dynamically created User Controls events - vb.net

Question

I have a User Control that is Dynamically created. It has to raise a Mouse_Move event & Mouse_Down event.
How to manage events for Multiple User Control that are created dynamically. I was considering using a list of user controls to track the controls. But I do not know how to setup the events properly.
Public Class UserControl1
Public Structure Porportions
Dim width_Percent As Double
Dim Height_percent As Double
Dim X_Location_Percent As Double
Dim Y_Location_Percent As Double
End Structure
Dim Pipe As Porportions
Dim guage1 As Porportions
Dim guage2 As Porportions
Public start_pos As Point
Public move_offset As Point
Public Client_Point As Point
Public Pipe_Source As Excel
Public Pipe_Data As DataSet
Public Pipe_Properties As Pipe
Private Pipe_ID As String
' Public Event Pipe_MouseMove(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
Public Event Pipe_MouseMove1(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
Public Event Pipe_MouseDown1(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
Private Sub PictureBox1_MouseMove(sender As Object, e As MouseEventArgs) Handles PictureBox1.MouseMove
RaiseEvent Pipe_MouseMove1(sender, e)
End Sub
Private Sub PictureBox1_MouseDown(sender As Object, e As MouseEventArgs) Handles PictureBox1.MouseDown
RaiseEvent Pipe_MouseDown1(sender, e)
End Sub
Public Class Form1
Private pipe_cnt As Integer = 0
Private start_position As Point
Private MoveOffset As Point
Private Mouse_Position As Point
Private WithEvents pp As UserControl1
Private Sub Pipe_MouseMove(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As MouseEventArgs) Handles pp.Pipe_MouseMove1
Dim dx As Integer
Dim dy As Integer
Dim m_loc As Point
Dim scrn As Point
m_loc = New Point(e.Location)
Mouse_Position = New Point(e.X, e.Y)
scrn = PointToScreen(Mouse_Position)
Mouse_Position = PointToClient(Mouse_Position)
dx = start_position.X - Mouse_Position.X
dy = start_position.Y - Mouse_Position.Y
MoveOffset = New Point(dx, dy)
If e.Button = MouseButtons.Left Then
Try
pp.Location = New Point(pp.Left + e.X, pp.Top + e.Y)
pp.Location = New Point(pp.Left + e.X, pp.Top + e.Y)
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)
End Try
End If
End Sub
Private Sub Pipe_MouseDown1(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles pp.Pipe_MouseDown1
start_position = New Point(pp.Location)
End Sub

What I understand that you want to use an same event for multiple user controls. There are many methods to achieve this.
Method 1 (Easiest):
Just put handler events after Handles clause and separate them by commas ,. See example:
Private Sub MouseMove_Event(sender As Object, e As MouseEventArgs) Handles Pipe.MouseMove, PictureBox1.MouseMove
MsgBox("MouseMove")
End Sub
Private Sub Click_Event(sender As Object, e As MouseEventArgs) Handles Pipe.Click, PictureBox1.Click
MsgBox("Click")
End Sub
Private Sub MouseDown_Event(sender As Object, e As MouseEventArgs) Handles Pipe.MouseDown, PictureBox1.MouseDown
MsgBox("MouseDown")
End Sub
Method 2 (burden):
Create and collect all controls in a array of controls and then create events in a foreach loop.
Create Sub that gets array of controls and add handlers using foreach loop.
Private Sub CreateHandlers(Controls() As Control)
For Each control As Control In Controls
Me.Controls.Add(control)
AddHandler control.Click, AddressOf Click_Event
AddHandler control.MouseMove, AddressOf MouseMove_Event
AddHandler control.MouseDown, AddressOf MouseDown_Event
Next
End Sub
Your events
Private Sub Click_Event(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)
'Handle Click events here
End Sub
Private Sub MouseMove_Event(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)
'Handle MouseMove events here
End Sub
Private Sub MouseDown_Event(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)
'Handle MouseDown events here
End Sub
Create controls dynamically and just call CreateHandlers(controls) at end
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim pictureBox1 As PictureBox = New PictureBox _
With {
.Size = New Size(100, 100),
.Location = New Point(0, 0),
.BackColor = Color.Black
}
Dim panel1 As Panel = New Panel _
With {
.Size = New Size(100, 100),
.Location = New Point(100, 0),
.BackColor = Color.Red
}
Dim tableLayoutPanel1 As TableLayoutPanel = New TableLayoutPanel _
With {
.Size = New Size(100, 100),
.Location = New Point(200, 0),
.BackColor = Color.Green
}
Dim controls() As Control = {pictureBox1, panel1, tableLayoutPanel1}
CreateHandlers(controls)
End Sub
End Class
