Difference !!!

Hi.
What is difference between these two codes ?

1. this.Controls.Add(_SomeControl);
2. _SomeControl.Parent = this;

Thanks :-)

Well, first line is adding _SomeControl to the control of "this" which is probably a Form. So it is adding _SomeControl to form's controls and will display it on the given position with given size. Second line of code setting _SomeControl.Parent to this (Form probably).

I know that.
Both of them Shows _SomeControl on Form.
If i write first statement, second automatically become true (or viceversa) ?

The difference is that Add function is use to put componets like buttons, checkboxes, listboxes, rich text editors, etc... Components that goes inside a Windows Forms.
And the statement number two is use to set the parent of a windows form. But The parent windows form must be set as a MDI conteiner = true. Then you can add windows forms inside your mdi conteiner windows form. check this project.
