[2008] adding/removing user controls

[masfenix]

Hokay, here's what I am trying to do:

I created a simple user control with a label and a textbox. No public properties yet, no methods, no functions.

In my main form, there is a method called "UploadFile". This method executes when the user uploads a file. This method is part of a threadpool, so two methods might occur simultanously. My goal is everytime this method is run, it creates an instance of the usercontrol (will probabaly put a progress bar in there and everything), and add it on the main form.
I HAVE NO PROBLEM ADDING IT TO THE FORM.

Here is my method:

In the starting of my method I have the following:

Private Sub addProgress()
        Dim _found As Boolean = False
        Dim pre As uploadprogress = Nothing
        Dim preLocation As Integer
        Dim ctl As Control = Me.GetNextControl(Me, True) 'Get the first control in the tab order.        
        Do Until ctl Is Nothing
            'Use ctl here.          
            If TypeOf (ctl) Is uploadprogress Then
                preLocation = ctl.Location.Y
                _found = True
                pre = ctl
            End If
            ctl = Me.GetNextControl(ctl, True) 'Get the next control in the tab order.       
        Loop
 
        If _found And pre IsNot Nothing Then
            u_view = New uploadprogress
            Me.Controls.Add(u_view)
            u_view.BringToFront()
            u_view.Location = New Point(6, preLocation + pre.Height)
        Else
            u_view = New uploadprogress
            Me.Controls.Add(u_view)
            u_view.BringToFront()
            u_view.Location = New Point(6, 119 + 91)
        End If
      
 
    End Sub

u_view is declared as "private withevents as [usercontrol class name]"

Okay so this adds the usercontrol fine! However, when my UploadFile Method ENDS, I want to remove the usercontrol. My main form automatically grows when a usercontrol is added to the bottom, so I would like to shrink it when it is removed..

but my question is.. how do I remove this user control.

Where is the upload method? is it in the user control or the form. Basically a user control behaves like any other class, IE it can be destroyed after use.
