I tried searching all the websites but i am unable to get this through. If someone can guide me through will be very helpful.

I have 2 grids on form MainForm. 1 MainGrid and 1 ReportGrid. I have a Button Show Report on a form

I use the below code to show my report form in the ReportGrid

VB

Dim Frm As New ReportForm   'This is a user control
        MainGrid.IsEnabled=False
        ReportGrid.Children.Add(Frm)

This will overlap the Usercontrol on top of my Main form. This works perfectly till here.

On my user control ReportForm, I have a Back button when clicked, it should close the loaded user control and then enable the MainGrid Again.

Now problem is, How to remove the usercontrol from the Reportgrid on Main form? is my question.

I've been searching for solutions over internet for hours with all possible snippets but none worked for me. Any Help would greatly be appreciated.

I'm not similar with WPF as good as i wish, but see this: XAML Overview (WPF)[^].

ReportGrid.Children.Remove(Frm)

I tried both solutions that you provided. None of them worked. Although the concept of VisualTreeHelper Amazed me, it did not do any help in meeting the requirement.

Did you try this: ReportGrid.Children(0) = Nothing?

Reportgrid is in main form and button is in reportform. Can this be possible?
