Retrieve Visibility Of Design Controls On The Win Form

I have design winform with various controls on it like textbox/ComboBox and Panels on some days ago but now if I am trying to run the forms the forms is visible but the controls which are designed on it is not visible. I don’t know what is the reason or some mistake made by me in past with it. But the reality is that I am unable to retrieve the controls on the forms.

Form11.cs (code design ) file is available as well as form11Designer.cs file is also there in well coded format.

Don’t know where is the mistake and how to retrieve all the controls which I have designed on it?

In the Visual Studio form designer, open the "Properties" view. At the top of it, there will be a drop-down list box of all the controls on the form. You should be able to find and select your control from that box. When a control is selected from that list box, it is also 'selected' in the form designer itself, so should get the selection rectangle around it. Your control might just be hiding behind another control...
