thank you for the code can you please tell me where it goes?(under which event)

It goes in the page's code behind. The event it handles is the ServerValidate event of the CustomValidator.

No, that's a CustomValidator in the page.

This code is from a blog post example. If you had read the actual post it came from, it would make sense.

The code is all right there in the blog post. This is the declaration for the CustomValidator in the post:

Code:

<asp:CustomValidator ID="custval_txtTeam" runat="server" 
   ErrorMessage="That name is already taken. Please pick another." 
   ControlToValidate="txtTeam" Display="Dynamic" 
   OnServerValidate="custval_txtTeam_ServerValidate" />

Seriously, there's nothing I can send you that isn't already presented in the post. Is there something you don't understand about the post? I don't know how I can make it any plainer.
