How to register for events of a form closing?

I want myHandler to be invoked when myForm (Form) closes, so I added an
eventhandler to Form.Closing as follows:

========================================
myForm.Deactivate += new EventHandler(myHandler);

void myHandler(object sender, EventArgs e) {
Debug.WriteLine("==myHandler invoked");
}
========================================

Unfortunately myHandler never gets called. Whether I use Form.Closed,
Form.Closing, Form.Deactivate,...

What am I doing wrong here?

Cyberco,

Maybe you are not closing the form? A form on pocket frameworks is
minimized at default.... when you stop it using visual studio your
program is also stopped so the event is not tossed.

Some info here:

form.closing should be right....
