How, after dynamically creating a new button control, set it's parent to a
panel control
This doesn't seem to work:
NewButton.Parent-MyPanelControl

[Just about] Every Control can contain other Controls, so you need to do
this the other way around:

MyPanelControl.Controls.Add( newButton )

If in doubt about stuff like this, have a rummage through the "Designer
Generated" code for a crash course in how to construct forms in code...
