It would just work. A WindowsForms Form would be implicity cast to a
Control.

Not sure what the question is - have you tried it? Of course it should be
possible because the Form derives from Control. The problem might be what
the method in question actually does with the Form, possibly it doesn't
expect to get one passed in - but then it should throw an exception if it
was properly written.

HI all
Sorry for the unclear question !!
What I wanted to do is simply, I declare a method that takes Argument of
Control type like : InspectObject(Control C)
My question is, should this works if I call that method like this
InspectObject(this), where this is the current Form ??

Thanks and best regards

Yes. Form inherits from Control, so all Forms are Controls.

Yes Waleed, it would work. A Form *IS* a Control.

Sounds like you could do with reading a tutorial/book on Object Oriented
Programming.
