title: Windows Mobile 5 SDK Button Control
body: <p>I'm a fairly novice programmer working on my first Windows Mobile application.  I see that there is no button control available for my program.  I've never created a custom control before, and I understand that is the only way that I can get a button for my application (it is a requirement as per my client).  I was wondering if someone could give me a quick walk through on how I would create this.  I'm using Visual Studio 2005 with the Windows Mobile 5 SDK, creating an application that is to be deployed on non-touchscreen devices.</p>
  
  <p>Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Update:</strong> A button control is a better option for this project, due to the amount of data that needs to be manipulated quickly.  There are seven sections with a counter label, and next to each label is a set of three buttons.  One button increases the int on the label, anther decreases it, and the third lets the user input an int value to assign to the label.  I tried developing a menu system to control all this, but the menu ended up being nested too deep, and quick access to making a change is important.</p>
  
  <p>I figured out how to make a very basic button by creating a user control, now I am having issues making the label on the control changeable in the properties window.</p>
