When you ask a question, make sure you include as much detail as possible. Such as code, the issue you are facing, what you expect the result to be, what .NET version you are using and what platform/environment (if any) are relevant to your question. Upload code here https://paste.mod.gg/ (see $code for more information on how to paste your code)
