In Windows programming, both user control and custom control refer to a control. Controls are re-usable components that may, but don't necessesarily do, have a graphical user interface. In some development scenarios, controls can be added to the application's graphical user interface using a simple drag-and-drop operation.

The term "user control" refers to a standard control that may be used by the user (the programmer). Perhaps the name would have better been "standard control." User controls include pre-defined components for all the fundamental components of a Windows graphical user interface, such as buttons, sliders, check boxes, radio buttons, lists and drop downs, etc. Non-interactive components such as a simple timer interface are also included.

A custom control is a control that is especially made by the programmer, and is not included with the development toolkit as a pre-defined component.

What is difference between enable and visible property in visual basic?

Visible means that the property can be used, but is not visible in the graphical user interface. But, if the user were to click a control that edit the objects properties, the object would change even if it isn't visible. Enabled/Disable means that for instance if the object is Disabled, it's still visible but the user cannot interact with it. This means, that if code is executed for the control that is disabled, nothing will change to that control.
