Solution 1

You can use the ErrorProvider component, which shows the user there's a problem and provides a tooltip with extra information...

You can't ever use ASP.NET based controls in winforms. If you think you might be able to, it's a sign you have absolutely no idea what ASP.NET is or how it works. You should read some basic books.

As someone else said, there are controls you can use in winforms. You can also just write your own validation code, winforms is a lot more flexible to start with. There's a maskededitbox for a start, although I prefer not to use it, it does allow you to validate input.
