    <p>Every control that derives from Control has a Text property, which is every control — however for some controls this property does not have a meaning.</p> <p>To build the complete list of controls you need to iterate the Form's Controls collection and then, for each control within it, recursively iterate that control's Controls collection.</p> <pre><code>IList&lt;Control&gt; controlsOnForm = new List&lt;Control&gt;(); BuildControlsList(this.Controls, controlsOnForm); private static void BuildControlsList(ControlCollection controls, IList&lt;Control&gt; listToPopulate) { foreach (Control childControl in controls) { listToPopulate.Add(childControl); BuildControlsList(childControl.Controls, listToPopulate); } } </code></pre> <p>I'm not actually sure how you are going to differentiate between controls that have a useful Text property and those for which it is not used. Obviously one approach would be to exclude those controls that have an empty string for the Text property.</p> <p>One can also do something similar for the menu (note that you will need to modify this somewhat if you are using the MainMenuStrip):</p> <pre><code>IList&lt;Menu&gt; menusOnForm = new List&lt;Menu&gt;(); if (this.Menu != null) { menusOnForm.Add(this.Menu); BuildMenuList(this.Menu.MenuItems, menusOnForm); } private static void BuildMenusList(MenuItemCollection menuItems, IList&lt;Menu&gt; listToPopulate) { foreach (Menu menuItem in menuItems) { listToPopulate.Add(menuItem); BuildMenusList(menuItem.MenuItems, listToPopulate); } } </code></pre>

    1. CO@Paul Ruane: you code also doesn't list menuitems.:(

    2. COI think one would have to handle menus explicitly as they do not derive from Control and there is no 'Components' collection we could iterate that contains all of the Form's components. The premise is the same as above, but instead of Control one would iterate Menu items instead. I'll update the answer to illustrate.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
