Solution 1

C#

private void button1_Click_1(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Button btnAdd = new Button();

            btnAdd.BackColor = Color.Gray;
            btnAdd.Text = "Add";
            btnAdd.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(90, 25+i);
            btnAdd.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(50, 25);
            this.Controls.Add(btnAdd);
            i = i + 10;
        }

also if you create the control(drag and drop) and make it visible = false and on click...change it into true (visible = true).

Label label = new Label();
label.Text = "text";
label.BorderStyle = BorderStyle.FixedSingle;
label.SetBounds(myPanel.Bounds.X + 1, myPanel.Bounds.Y + 5, 100, 20);
myPanel.Controls.Add(label);

this is the way how to create control at run time i use it and it is working well try it on button click of your application

Hi, just wondering what you mean when you say you can't make it invisible. What do you want to be invisible when you click the button? Do you want the button to become invisible after you've created the textboxes?
