There is no such concept as "closing a control". And I don't think that such concept, if existed, could be of any use. You can: 1) hide the user control if it is no longer needed, maybe temporarily; 2) permanently remove the control from the logical tree.

Please see:

Perhaps you need to understand one thing: the UI notions "open" and "close" are nothing but idioms; and those idioms are not even too precise: you are not really open or close anything: you create a window, show it, hide it temporarily or permanently dispose. I think the only real reason for these idioms is the simple fact: because window is called "window", something with a material life prototype which can really be opened and closed. The analogs of these terms in computer UI are quite far from these original notions.
