If you have some panels or groupboxes reset fields should be recursive    public class Utilities       public static void ResetAllControls Control form                foreach  Control control in form Controls                        RecursiveResetForm control                        private void RecursiveResetForm Control control                            if  control HasChildren                        foreach  Control subControl in control Controls                                RecursiveResetForm subControl                                   switch  control GetType   Name                        case  TextBox                   TextBox textBox    TextBox control                  textBox Text   null                  break               case  ComboBox                   ComboBox comboBox    ComboBox control                  if  comboBox Items Count  gt  0                      comboBox SelectedIndex   0                  break               case  CheckBox                   CheckBox checkBox    CheckBox control                  checkBox Checked   false                  break               case  ListBox                   ListBox listBox    ListBox control                  listBox ClearSelected                    break               case  NumericUpDown                   NumericUpDown numericUpDown    NumericUpDown control                  numericUpDown Value   0                  break

You can create the form again and dispose the old one   public partial class Form1   Form       public Form1                 InitializeComponent               private void btnReset Click object sender  EventArgs e                Form1 NewForm   new Form1                       NewForm Show            this Dispose false
