How to create a wizard-style functionality

Hi

I will like to know if I want to add a Wizard Style approach to setup a initial program first run.

Q1: May I know what components should I use?

Does creating such a wizard need more to have the followings:
- 1 x Form
- 3 Buttons (Next, Back, Cancel)
- and...?

Q2: What do I use to create multiple pages of controls, e.g textbox, combos, listboxes ?

Q3: The approach to create multiple pages of control, is it by toggling between container1.visible=true, then container2.visible=true?

Hi, lonix,

I think your idea of making a Wizard is great,

and it could be done in that way.

But I found a .net Wizard control in CodeProject which may save your sometime to build a wizard.

It works like a wizard template, and I do hope it could be helpful.
