Murach's C# - More skills for working with Windows forms and controls

To keep the emphasis on the C# essentials, the first nine chapters present single-form applications that contain label, text box, and button controls. But now that you're ready for it, this chapter shows you how to use controls like combo boxes, list boxes, and check boxes. It also shows you how to develop multi-form applications.
