The difference between the Load event and the shown event of the C # form

Load: occurs before the first time a form is displayed.

<pre name= "code" class= "CSharp" > private void Form1_Load (object sender, EventArgs e)
 {

 }

shown: The shown event is raised only when the form is first displayed, and the event is not raised by the minimized, maximized, restored, hidden, displayed, or invalidated and redrawn operations that are subsequently performed.

private void Form1_shown (Object sender, EventArgs e) {

   MessageBox.Show ("You are in the Form.shown event.");

}
