.NET - Windows Controls

With a ListBox control, the user can only make a selection from a list of items; whereas, with a ComboBox control, the user can make a selection from the list of items as well as can add custom entry and select the same.

The MinDate and MaxDate properties allow users to get and set the minimum and maximum allowable date.

The Control class or System.Windows.Forms.Control class is the parent class for all Window controls.

The MaskedTextBox control is an improvement of the TextBox control. It forces the user to provide the proper input, which is specified by the Mask property. In other words, it prevents the user to provide any invalid input to an application. The Mask property gets or sets the input type to the MaskedTextBox control. There are many built-in formats for the Mask property, such as phone no., short date, time, zip code, and custom.
