  8.     {  
  9.         public Form1()   
  10.         {  
  11.             InitializeComponent();  
  12.         }  
  13.         private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)   
  14.         {  
  15.             TextBox txt = new TextBox();  
  16.             this.Controls.Add(txt);  
  17.             txt.Location = new Point(100, 20);  
  18.             txt.Validating += new CancelEventHandler(txt_Validating);  
  19.         }

In code in button click event we create textbox control dynamically and add it to form’s Control collection. Also we set location property of textbox. By using following line of code we bind validating event to textbox.

  1. txt.Validating += new CancelEventHandler(txt_Validating);
