Answer 1

If you want to use the getter and setter and define a custom getter you also need to define a custom setter. For eg :

    public String Name
    {
        get { return txtName.Text; }
        set { txtName.Text = value; }
    }

Or you can create "get only" (so readonly) properties :

    public String Name
    {
        get { return txtName.Text; }
    }
