Bind data in text box in code behind and in aspx means design time

Bind data in text box at design time as follow:

<asp:TextBox id="textbox1" Text="Hello World!" runat="server" />

its display: Hello World!

Bind data in text box at codeing  time or in code behind page as follow:

textbox1.text = "Hello World!"

it display as :"Hello World!"

Bind data in text box at codeing from database or data source as follow:

textbox1.text = datarow["field name of datatable or database"];

Example : textbox1.text = datarow["firstname"];

Important Property of Asp.Net Textbox control as follow:

AccessKey:specify a key that navigates to the TextBox control.

           
Example :  

<asp:Textbox ID="txt" runat="server" AccessKey="T"  Text="<u>T</u>ext Here:"> </asp:Textbox>

here click on Alt+T you can access this textbox.

AutoCompleteType: associate an AutoComplete class with the TextBox control.

<asp:TextBox id="username" AutoCompleteType="Type" runat="server"/>

 Here Type is different type of autocomplete type such as
FirstName, LastName, MiddleName, None, Office, Email etc you need to write instead of Type any of this many more 

AutoPostBack:post the form containing the TextBox back to the server automatically when the contents of the TextBox is changed.

True if an automatic postback occurs when the TextBox control loses focus; otherwise, false. The default is false.

Example : <asp:Textbox id="Searchtxt" maxlength="50" runat="server"/>

Example : <asp:Textbox id="Searchtxt" ReadOnly="True" text="can't change" runat="server"/>
