Im not sure what you are trying do.

try Application.Restart();

You would need to store the status of the controls when the form first began.

Essentially, you need a "Reset" function.

e.g. If a textbox starts off with a text property value of "Begin," after the user makes changes to the text box and an event is fired that causes a reset to take place, in the reset function you'd need to simply set it back to "Begin".

One simple way to do this would be to use th "Tag" property of controls. Have the tag property store the initial value when the form begins. When user hits reset, just reinitialize the controls property display value to the value in the Tag property.

Sorry for late reply.

Assuming that the active form is "FmyForm.cs"

try this in your event / after user input

this.Hide();

FmyForm form = new FmyForm();

form.ShowDialog();

I use this code to reset my form

hope it works

Following code is written in C#, i think VB Implementation will also be same

for (int i = 0; i < this.Controls.Count; i++)
{
this.Controls.ResetText();
}

/* Iterate through Form Controls , and by using the ResetText() Function will set the text of all the controls to its default value */

Hope this might help

VB code:

For Each Controllo In TabPage1.Controls ' for form in action Me.Controls

If Controllo.GetType.ToString.Equals("System.Windows.Forms.TextBox") Then

TexBox = Controllo

TexBox.Test = ""

End If
