Remarks
Any type derived from the Object class can be assigned to this property. If the Tag property is set through the Windows Forms designer, only text can be assigned.
A common use for the Tag property is to store data that is closely associated with the control. For example, if you have a control that displays information about a customer, you might store a DataSet that contains the customer's order history in that control's Tag property so the data can be accessed quickly.
