Hi,

In my VFP app I have a lookup control (Account #) which is a container with textbox and a button. On click of the button a separate form pops with a grid showing accounts. User selects an account and clicks on Ok button.

In a WinForms application, do you suggest creating a User Control (with a textbox and a button)? And then also pop-up another form with a grid?
In terms of getting the data from a table for this control, do you suggest that a typed dataset for this look-up control (list of accounts) be filled in the INIT method of the look-up control? Is this how it is done in .NET WinForms?

TIA.
