# Step 1 of 4: Adding C1SplitContainer to the Page

## Content



In this step, you will create a .NET project and add a [C1SplitContainer](/componentone/docs/win/online-splitcontainer/) control to it.

Complete the following steps:

1.  Begin by creating a new Windows Forms Application
2.  While in **Design** view, navigate to the Visual Studio Toolbox and double-click the **C1SplitContainer** control to add it to your form. The **C1SplitContainer** appears as a container with one [C1SplitterPanel](/componentone/docs/win/online-splitcontainer/).<br />![](https://cdn.mescius.io/document-site-files/images/91a148ff-850c-4b63-a7b5-d269cf16bcf7/imagesext/image12_2.png)
