Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Class Library Reference Volume 7

Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 provides the programming model for building, deploying, and running interoperable Web-based applications, smart client applications, and XML Web services. It manages the difficult details of interoperability to enable developers to focus on writing the business logic code for cross-platform applications. Available in printed form for the first time, this volume includes the .NET Framework 1.1 System.Windows.Forms namespace, containing classes for creating applications that take advantage of the rich UI features in the Microsoft Windows operating system, and the System.Drawing namespace, which provides access to basic GDI+ graphics functionality.

The System.Windows.Forms namespace includes classes such as:



The AccessibleObject class, which provides information that accessibility applications use to adjust an application's UI for users with impairments.
The Clipboard class, which provides methods to place data on and retrieve data from the system Clipboard.
The DataGrid class, which displays ADO.NET data in a scrollable grid.

The System.Drawing namespace includes classes such as:



The Font class, which defines a particular format for text, including font face, size, and style attributes.
The RectangleConverter class, which converts rectangles from one data type to another.
The SolidBrush class, which defines a brush of a single color.
