the problem is that i want to add fuctionality when i call my uc2 by clicking button present in uc1
so because of what my uc1 will hide n uc2 will appear at the same panel

I do not understand your question much further than following response:

IF uc1.Text='Show uc2' THEN uc2.Visible=true ELSE c2.Visible=false

Does this help? if not please give some more info.

I couldn't understand a lot but based on what I understood I am going to give u suggestion -

If you really want to do so you can write your code like this:

public static void showUC(Control uc, Control pnlContainer)
{
    pnlContainer.Controls.Clear();
    uc.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;
    pnlContainer.Controls.Add(uc);
}
 

and call it like this:

showUC(new someControlType(), someControlContainer);

No need to call the GC; do leave it to the system to clean up matters!

And a static function needs to know all objects it is supposed to work with, so you need to pass in the container as well.

Finally new needs paranthesis with (optionally) parameters..

I made the signature of the new control Control so you can pass in any control; and for even more flexibility the container is also Control. Note that this still allows you to pass in the Form! Of course you may want to go back to more restricted types..
