You need a minimum screen resolution of about 700 pixels width to see our exercises. This is because they contain diagrams and tables which would not be viewable easily on a mobile phone or small laptop. Please use a larger tablet, notebook or desktop computer, or change your screen resolution settings.
The aim of this exercise is to create an application form for a dating agency. Create a form alled frmApplicationForm and add controls and formatting so that it looks something like this:

You can choose different colours ...
Your form should include:
- a ComboBox control (you can use the SelectedItem.Text property of the combobox to find out the user's preference); and
- a DateTimePicker control (see hint below)
You can use something like dtpDateOfBirth.Value.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy") to get at the date entered.
When a user clicks on Apply now, they should see something like this in a message box:

You should create and display a string of text containing the user's choices
When you're happy that your form works successfully, close it down.
