III.9- Using Menu Tip Control
Creating a MenuStrip
We can create a MenuStrip control using a Forms designer at design-time or using the MenuStrip class in code at run-time or dynamically.
To create a MenuStrip control at design-time, you simply drag and drop a MenuStrip control from Toolbox to a Form in Visual Studio. After you drag and drop a MenuStrip on a Form, the MenuStrip1 is added to the Form and looks like Figure 1. Once a MenuStrip is on the Form, you can add menu items and set its properties and events.
Setting MenuStrip Properties
After you place a MenuStrip control on a Form, the next step is to set properties.
The easiest way to set properties is from the Properties Window. You can open Properties window by pressing F4 or right clicking on a control and selecting Properties menu item. The Properties window looks like Figure 2.
III.10- Using TabControl
To create a TabControl control at design-time, you simply drag and drop a TabControl control from Toolbox onto a Form in Visual Studio. After you drag and drop a TabControl on a Form, the TabControl1 is added to the Form and looks like Figure 1. A TabControl is just a container and has no value without tab pages.
Design-time

Using Timer
C# Timer is used to implement a timer in C#. The Timer class in C# represents a Timer control that executes a code block at a specified interval of time repeatedly. For example, backing up a folder every 10 minutes, or writing to a log file every second. The method that needs to be executed is placed inside the event of the timer.
Windows Forms has a Timer control that can be dropped to a Form and set its properties. Learn how to use a Timer in C# to write to a text file repeatedly at a certain interval of time.
