C#

Key point: Controls added to a ControlCollection and docked 'Top followed by the use of 'BringToFront on the Control will be added beneath other controls. When one of these controls is removed/deleted, the other Controls will rearrange so that the order is maintained.

Are there any circumstances where you would want to keep track of not only the current active 'Item, but, the previous one ?
