Question

Which textbox property should always be changed first?

Answer 1

I use Visual Studio to make desktop DotNet applications in vb.net for windows. If I'd ever make a program with a textBox control included, I'd first change the textBox's name property from TextBox1 or anything else to something meaning full.

Next, I'll position the textBox some where on the form, where it makes some sense, and, hence, change it's location property.

Next would be any formatting changes made to the textbox by changing its Border-style and Font property.

At last I'll change the Text property if the textbox needs to have some default text.
