How do I delete/remove custom control from a form programmatically?

[Mythos44]

Hello I created a custom control and add it to a form programatically.

The user can add and move them all over the form.

The problem is when I want to clear the form of my user control I don't know how.

I created an array of my control called ctlCorkNotes

Say I create ctlCorkNotes(1) and now I want to delete it.

How do I do this so it is gone and would have to recreate it to show up again?

Thanks for your help.

First of all, set the visible property to false and then use this method:
ctlCorkNotes.Dispose()

That will release all resources to your control.

The Visible property is irrelevant. Call the control's Dispose method and then Remove it from its Parent's Controls collection.
