OnSelect Event, which one to use?

Hello,

 

I'm wrapping up my custom AddIn creation and getting ready to release it. As I am reading my code for the ( possibly ) the last time, I found something interesting which should have my attention.

 

My AddIn works based on user selection of items. When the user selects an object the most relevant ( for us ) iProperties are shown in a custom browser along with some other custom functions based on the selected object.

 

Now to catch the event for the user selection I am currently using this method. Which taps into the UserInputEvents

 

' User Input events object.
Private WithEvents oUserInputEvent As UserInputEvents

Private Sub OnDocumentSelectedEvent() Handles oUserInputEvent.OnSelect, oUserInputEvent.OnUnSelect
    dc.GetCurrentDocumentDescription()
End Sub

But.. I see that I could also use the SelectEvents.

' User Input events object.
Private WithEvents oSelectEvents As SelectEvents

Private Sub OnDocumentSelectedEvent() Handles oSelectEvents.OnSelect, oSelectEvents.OnUnSelect
    dc.GetCurrentDocumentDescription()
End Sub

What is the difference between these two methods? Or are they the same?
