"An event" means that something happened, such as that a record was created.
Event handlers are methods executed when an event occurs. For example, you may want to add data to another table when a record was created.
Thanks Martin,
So, there are only 2 event handlers right?
Pre and Post
Not at all! Each event can have any number of handlers.
What you likely mean by "Pre and Post" are special kind of events (not handlers!) happening at the beginning and end of a method. Handlers are methods that you want to execute when an event (such as beginning of method execution) occurs. If you read my original reply again and think about it, it should be obvious.
There are other types of events, such as recording creation discussed before.
