A better method rather than a user control is to place a TabControl on your form, add a tab for each operation then place controls on each Tab.

To make the TabControl not appear as a TabControl

Set the following properties

• Appearance = TabAppearance.FlatButtons
• ItemSize = new Size(0, 1)
• SizeMode = TabSizeMode.Fixed

If afterwards you need to modify one or more tables you need to revert ItemSize and SizeMode, when done reset those properties

In menu selections, set the SelectedTab to the appropriate tab

To set a tab TabControl1.SelectedTab = InventoryEditTab

Off topic, be careful with TableAdapter component as they are generally used by new developers and those new developers get into trouble down the road if they don't fully understand them.
