Question

what is the best way to create a windows app interface . i was working with forms but it takes alot of time i must instaniate a form every time i need it. i worked with panels but its to hard to switch between them while creating the interface .especially when you have a lot of panels . i also worked with tab control and i made the height and widht of header = 0 and i switch between them with code . now i am trying user control . what are the best controls to use while creating your interface ?thanks
