Sending different types of data thru a Form's constructor

[VMI]

My Winform's constructor currently takes one parm, which is an integer. But
I need for it to be able to take an integer or an array of integers. Is it
possible to "create" two constructor methods?

Thanks.

Yes. You can create as many constructors you want as long as they have
different parameters.

Yes. In every sense a form class is no different then any class you define.
It is because it derives from System.Windows.Forms.Form that "makes" it a
form class and allows the framework to expect certain interfaces and
behaviors. Other then that you can define constructors, statics,
public/private/internal methods and properties as normal. It is
instanciated with "new" like any other class, as it is a class. I think you
want to call ": this()" in your constructor line at the end so the empty
constructor is called which calls InitializeComponent();.
