Custom section with Umbraco controls

Hi guys

I’m creating a custom section in Umbraco 7 using Creating custom sections in Umbraco 7 - Part 1 | Enkel Media as a guide for web forms.

I would like to use some of the controls that come within Umbraco when creating a page such as DateTime picker, textboxes or even the built in editor in my own custom pages.

How could I hook up to these controls on my own custom pages and then use them to carry out database actions (if it’s just a matter of using the control properties in my C# code then that’s fine)

Thank you in advance
