About this title

Synopsis

Whether you’re a new or experienced developer, get the focused information you need to streamline application development using Windows Forms and Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0. Award-winning author Charles Petzold illuminates the essential concepts and techniques for exploiting Windows Forms capabilities—offering concise, eloquent instruction as always, along with ample code examples in C#.

• Understand the architecture of Windows Forms programs
• Add familiar Windows controls to your application, such as buttons, scroll bars, and text boxes
• Create toolbars, menus, and status bars, complete with text and bitmap images
• Enhance existing controls, combine multiple controls, or create custom controls from scratch
• Exploit dynamic layout with FlowLayoutPanel
• Support absolute, proportional, or auto-sized columns and rows with TableLayoutPanel
• Develop data-bound controls
• Display tabular data with the new DataGridView control—without writing extensive code
• PLUS—Build and deploy two real-world Windows Forms applications from the bottom up
