Clicked event-handlers? My project has minimum 5 "buttons" and each on being clicked must show the corresponding user control.Using the .show and .hide methods looks not like its the right way of evoking the click event.

Is there a way of equating one button clicked event to all the buttons and forms

Yes - just set the event handler to the same method in the designer.
Assuming your method exists:
1) Highlight your button.
2) Look at the Events in the Properties pane (via the "lightning bolt" button)
3) Select the appropriate event ("Click" for example) by clicking it once.
4) A drop down will appear at the right side of the property - click it to open.
5) Select your method name from the list.
6) Repeat for you other buttons.

The same method will now be called - you can find out which called it via the "sender" parameter.
