Hi...! I'm Working on mind challenge game i nearly cmepleted it but i've got a problem...
when a player choose a button it shows it's number but when it choose the second button it won't show the second button number because of this lines:

 foreach (var ctrl in this.Controls)
                    {
                        if ((ctrl as Button).Text == Convert.ToString(compareclass.getfirstnumber()) || (ctrl as Button).Text == Convert.ToString(compareclass.getsecondnumber()))
                        {
                            (ctrl as Button).BackColor = Color.Wheat;
                            (ctrl as Button).ForeColor = Color.Wheat;
                        }
                    }
                    this.Text = "Wrong!";

so i want a little dealy after the second button is clicked that player can see both buttons number so how can i do tha?!

There are a couple of options, the simplest is probably Thread.Sleep. You might find it easier to write and read your code if you cast the control to the type you want once as a new control, then use the properties of that control, rather than casting it each time you want to access the properties.

Here's some revised code to look at:

    private void Button_click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        Button ClickedButton = (Button)sender;
        Position pos = new Position();
        pos = (Position)(ClickedButton.Tag;
        choosecounter++;
        change = !change;
        if (change == false)
        {
            compareclass.secondnumber(Convert.ToInt32(ClickedButton.Text));
            ClickedButton.ForeColor = Color.Red;
            ClickedButton.Refresh();
            Thread.Sleep(2000);
            if (compareclass.cmp())
            {
                this.Text = "Same";
                foreach (Button ctrl in this.Controls.OfType<Button>())
                {
                    if (ctrl.Text == Convert.ToString(compareclass.getfirstnumber()) || ctrl.Text == Convert.ToString(compareclass.getsecondnumber()))
                    {
                        ctrl.Enabled = false;
                    }
                }
            }
            else
            {
                foreach (Button ctrl in this.Controls.OfType<Button>())
                {
                    if (ctrl.Text == Convert.ToString(compareclass.getfirstnumber()) || ctrl.Text == Convert.ToString(compareclass.getsecondnumber()))
                    {
                        ctrl.BackColor = Color.Wheat;
                        ctrl.ForeColor = Color.Wheat;
                    }
                }
                this.Text = "Wrong!";
            }
        }
        else
        {
            compareclass.firstnumber(Convert.ToInt32(ClickedButton.Text));
            ClickedButton.ForeColor = Color.Red;
        }
        int o = 0;
        foreach (Button butt in this.Controls.OfType<Button>())
        {
            if (!butt.Enabled)
            {
                o++;
                if (o == 36)
                {
                    DialogResult d = MessageBox.Show("You Won In " + choosecounter + " Clicks! \n Would You Like To Restart?", "You Won!", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo);
                    if (d == DialogResult.Yes)
                    {
                        Application.Restart();
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        Application.Exit();
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
