Maybe this will help you:

* override WndProc for the textbox
* catch the WM_PAINT message
* paint your own layout

I thought on that idea, but I want to derive ti from the textbox
control. IF
there is no choice, I will do it that way.

This question would be better asked in Windowsforms.Controls but...

You would probably be better off creating a user control that contains
a
textbox and a button.

How can I draw an image in a class that derives from the textbox?
I want to be able to redefine the drawing part of the base control,
and
at
the edge of the control draw a botton.

Thanks.
