Difference between "override" and "new" keyword

"New" modifier is used to hide a member inherited from a parent class which is not virtual. This does not have the polymorphic behavior, so if someone calls the parent class method, the implementation in the method which "new" modifier has been used is not been called.

"Override" modifier can be used to override virtual or abstract members and it contains the polymorphic behavior.

"Browse..." button in Windows forms

Since there is no such "Browse..." button in Windows forms, I created something equivalent using the following method:

Add a button control and set the text as "Browse...".
In the button click event,

OpenFileDialog openFileDialog1 = new OpenFileDialog();
openFileDialog1.InitialDirectory =  "c:\\";

openFileDialog1.RestoreDirectory = true;

if (openFileDialog1.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)

if ((myStream = openFileDialog1.OpenFile()) != null)                           
 txt_FilePath.Text = openFileDialog1.FileName;
 myStream.Close();

Then add a text box control(txt_FilePath) infront of the button and set the text property to file path.
