I'm using the control button but I want to add a property in that control to store data for example 'button1.password="Dark Byte"' , how would I do that?

Make a new User Control that inherits System.Window.Forms.Button then add the extra things you want to it, then use the new control that you've made rather than the normal Button when designing the form.
I gave it a try but couldn't work out how to make the new control appear in the toolbox. Good Luck!

There is a property on controls called "Tag" of object type, so you can assign anything to it, but I don't think that suits your current need. What I would suggest is simply storing a string variable which contains your password.

Ya but I'm using 10+ buttons that are being created at runtime & it would be hard to keep track of them doing that.

You could use the tag to store an integer then have a multidimensional array with the tag's value as the index of extra things you want.

or could I make the tag object like a list collection?
