I am an ASP.NET developer, but I know nothing about Windows Forms ... I am used to programming in NotePad, so I wonder if it's possible to develop Windows applications on NotePad too. I do not own Visual Studio ...
you need to declare a class which inherits from System.Windows.Forms.Form
and have public objects that are the elemnts on it
my recommendation is to download ASP.NET webmatrix
since it has a full class viewer so you can see all the classes inthe system.windows.forms namespace
you also need the .NET SDK to compile your application using either VBC.exe or CSC.exe but you should have that if you have if you have compiled ASP.NET apps
Creating Windows forms without Visual Studio ?
BZRK
But then, how do I end up with an exe file to run the software on Windows
