(I don't want to create a button that displays the FontDialog ... I need to add the dialog's contents as icons to my form like " a button B and a button I ...etc").

2. how to DISPLAY a running timer on my Form?
(starts with 0 and increases every second)

3. how to remove the sound that appears when I press the Enter button?
( this is the event code:

C#

private void TextBox_KeyUp(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
       {
           if (e.KeyCode == Keys.Enter)
           {
               // Do Something
           }
       }

but when I press Enter a noisy annoying sound like an error MessageBox rises... how to get rid of it?).

I appreciate any help :)
thanks guys,

1. You can't – these dialogs are all of a piece and created by the OS. Ask for one on a different OS and it may look different. You will have to create tool buttons and other controls yourself.

2. For a pure UI timer, use System.Windows.Forms.Timer or whatever the WPF equivalent is (it will be in your toolbox if you are using a graphical IDE), set its interval to 1000ms and update a label in the update event. This timer runs in the UI thread and is not super accurate, so if you're actually timing something as part of a data management process you may want to use other techniques, but your question implies it is just a UI level thing.

3. There should be no sound from Enter. Do you have something else on the form hooked up to Enter (for example a button set as the form's AcceptButton) which is putting up a message box?
