Book on Forms - C# / C Sharp

Patrick De Ridder

I am looking for a very good book on forms.
One that treats the controls one by one in depth,
with concise examples (e.g. not like the Erik
Brown book, which rambles on and on with one
example that grows and grows until you loose
all perspective.)

Can someone please come up with some good
suggestions?

Patrick,

look in the book section and there are a bunch of links to
free chapters (including one for the above book) as well
as free C# ebook links..

Hi Kanuk,

That really is a wealth of information!

It is going to keep me happy for quite some time :)

I think I found some of the things I was looking for in particular, namely
datagrids, and data binding.

Many thanks,
Patrick.
