Wizard forms

[Noor]

Hi all,

what is the best approach to create wizard for an application?

Do i have to take as many forms as the wizards will have or take only one
form and multiple panels on it.
or is there any other good approach?

plz provide me the answer

Check out this free control:
http://www.divil.co.uk/net/controls/wizardcontrol/
WizardControl eliminates the hard work involved in creating a wizard in your
application. The standard look of a wizard is created for you without you
having to write tedious code every time. The control is easy to configure
and rich design time support ensures that when designing it, what you see is
what you get.

Pages added to the WizardControl are stepped through using Back and Next
hyperlinks instead of buttons at design time. Control of the wizard process
is maintained through three events exposed, and the wizard is by default
configured to set the DialogResult of its parent form on completion (or
cancellation).

Features

a.. No coding necessary
b.. WYSIWYG design of wizard pages (like TabControl)
c.. Wizard process configurable through events
d.. Helps maintain a standard wizard look and feel
e.. Fully configurable graphics and text throughout

Maybe you will find some "ideas" here:

I remember the magic library includes a wizard framework:
