A user interface allows information to be input and modified for use by the application. Many types of controls can be added to the user interface to allow different types of information manipulation, specification, and selection. A Windows form may be used in order to integrate these controls and provide a structure for the deployed interface. In this chapter, we examine the basic creation of Windows forms using the Visual Studio .NET development environment and simple event handling.
