Developing a desktop application

To develop a Desktop Application (GUI) the base control that has to be created first is Form. To create the Form first define a class inheriting from the pre-defined class "Form" so that the new class also becomes a Form.

---

Example:

public class Form1 : Form 

---

To run the Form we have created call the static method Run of Application class by passing the object of Form we have created as a parameter.

 Form1 f = new Form1();
Application.Run(f);
Or   Application.Run(new Form1());
