I need a Crystal Ball in order to Help, I can't read that.
Posting a proper question would be a start, with Code not a Picture

Nope, sorry, didn't work...

1) You should use a title that actually explains briefly what the problem is. Title threads like "I need help" aren't usefull. Of course you need help, or you wouldn't be here.
2) The forum does something to screenshots and reduces them in size. We can't see sh** in them. don't post them unless it's part of the screen and already reduced in size.
3) Even with a screen shot, it helps to tell us what the problem is. In my signature block below is a link about removing eels from your hovercraft. I suggest reading it. Otherwise you get people like me with terse responses of "Well have you tried removing the eels from your hovercraft and recompiling?" because that response is as useful as the original post.
So before someone asks you to remove the eels from you hover craft, read the guide on removing them, and try it again.

Seems you have an unhandled Null Reference exception.

I agree with Niya, but since I can't read the line of code, I can't say much more than that.

Object Reference not set to an instance is both the most common exception, and usually about the easiest, but you have two steps to take. The first step is to find the object that is Nothing. One of the objects in that line is Nothing. Once you find that object, then you have to find out why. Quite often, once you figure out which object is Nothing, the why is self evident. If not, then go back to where the object was created...or should have been created, since it wasn't created.

I guess the OP must have moved on, as it was their first post and maybe they're lost in the internet woods somewhere.
Anyway, it looks to me like the sub is...

    Protected Overrides Sub OnCreateControl()
        MyBase.OnCreateControl()
        Dock = DockStyle.Fill
        Parent.FindForm().FormBorderStyle = FormBorderStyle.None     
    End Sub

I'm assuming that Parent.FindForm is perhaps returning Nothing.

It looks like VS2017 returns an additional line in the exception message that is more specific, i.e.

System.NullReferenceException: 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object.'

System.Windows.Forms.Control.Parent.get returned Nothing.
