Accepted answer
You can have as many partial classes as you like.

There are no other options for splitting classes in a similar fashion.

However, you can nest one class inside another and move some of the 'outer' class's functionality into the 'inner' class.

Hey i explain below in Patical class in details for windows application in C#

By default the project comes with 2 files in it:
-Form1.cs
-Program.cs

-Form1.cs is the file in which a class Form1 is defined inheriting from predefined class Form.
Eg: public partial class Form1 : Form

-Windows applications developed under VS has 2 places to work with:
1. Design View
2. Code View

-Design View is the place where we design the app. this is accessible both to programmer's and end user's where as Code View is the place where we write code for the execution of application, this is accessible only to programmers.
