wiring up widget signals to my code

I am coming from a Microsoft Widows MFC and .Net development world and am trying to figure how how to wire up the signals with custom slots in a dialog.

In the world from which I have come, I would simply find the "event" (signal) in the docked window and double click it to get VS2005 to create the handler (slot) for the event (signal).

With the VS2005 integration, do I have to do this by hand or is there a completely different approach to doing this type of thing?

Let me give you two examples of what I am trying to do:

1: When a combo box widget has its selection changed, other widgets need to change state.

2: This is a dialog that asks for some files, so it has a text edit widget and a push button widget associated with it called Browse. When the browse push button widget is pressed, the file selection dialog needs to be called and if that was accepted, then the file path needs to be placed in the text edit widget.
